Take It Back - Emily Ritz

I’m not trying to be distant

I’ve been out of my body

Gone then back in an instant

Trying not to feel sorry

If you want me you’ll answer

Though silence I’ve allowed

You sleep sound while I stir

I’ve been wondering how

Do you rest when the feeling is love

Do you sleep when you’ve had enough for now

Will you hide when the feeling is new

Do you try not to feel blue so soon

I’ve been busy I’m worn out

Don’t ask too much

I’ll see you soon no doubt

But be light with your touch

If you want me you’ll have me

Make future plans

Don’t take it back baby

Please just take my hand

Do you fold when the feeling is love

Do you hold your armor up to me

Will I rest when the ache is gone

Do my best to not linger long in love

Don’t take it back yet

Don’t rest just yet
