Take Me Back (1913)

From the show “All Aboard”, 1913
Words and music by Irving Berlin
Lyrics
1. Sweetheart the day we parted
Somehow I never knew
You’d leave me broken hearted
Pining away for you
All that I really cared for
All that I wanted near
All that made life worth living
Vanished with you my dear
Chorus
Take me back
Won’t you take me back
Every joy I knew
Will return with you
I’m so sad
You are all I had
Can’t you hear my broken heart calling you
Take me back
2. Sweetheart since we’ve been parted
Seems like a thousand years
For every hour of gladness
I’ve paid an hour of tears
Come back and make me happy
Why should we live apart
Come to my arms and answer
The call of my broken heart
