Flashback Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thought I was OK
Realizing I made a mistake
I been doing some thinking
Ever since I saw you today maybe
I said some things that I didn't mean
Trying to change your ways
But my days ain't the same
Maybe you should have stayed
I had a

[Chorus]
Flashback (flashback)
I really love you so sad (so sad)
Thought I was over you too fast (too fast)
I wish I could re-live the past (the past)
Flashback (flashback), flashback (flashback)
The mistakes you made weren't that bad (that bad)
Now that I saw you I want you back (you back)
I wish I could re-live the past (the past)
All these Flashbacks (All the flashbacks), flashback

[Verse 2]
I wish that I could get back with you now
Don't wanna see another woman around
All these memories, thought I had you out of my mind
Baby (I keep trying, I keep trying and it won't stop)
These flashbacks, I don't want that
I just wanna go back where you messed up and erase that
I'm tripping, I'm in the zone
It's nothing but a (flashback)
[Chorus]
Flashback (flashback)
I really love you so sad (so sad)
Thought I was over you too fast (too fast)
I wish I could re-live the past (the past)
Flashback (flashback), flashback (flashback)
The mistakes you made weren't that bad (that bad)
Now that I saw you I want you back (you back)
I wish I could re-live the past (the past)
Oh flashback (flashback), flashback

[Bridge]
You would call, "come pick me up"
Take me somewhere no one knows
Oceans, candlelight lay me down and take it slow
I am expecting messages just to say "hey beautiful"
Gave me attention, make sure that you kept me close
But it's over now, but it's over now
But it's over now, but it's over now

[Chorus]
Flashback (flashback)
I really love you so sad (so sad)
Thought I was over you too fast (too fast)
I wish I could re-live the past (the past)
Flashback (flashback), flashback (flashback)
The mistakes you made weren't that bad (that bad)
Now that I saw you I want you back (you back)
I wish I could re-live the past (the past)
Flashback (flashback), flashback
Flashback (flashback)
I really love you so sad (so sad)
Thought I was over you to fast (to fast)
I wish I could re-live the past (the past)
Flashback (flashback), flashback (flashback)
The mistakes you made weren't that bad (that bad)
Now that I saw you I want you back (you back)
I wish I could re-live the past (the past)
Flashback (flashback), flashback

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
