If I Don’t Get You (Back Again) Lyrics

I used to sit and watch the stars
Especially old Jupiter and Mars
When my days were blue
But now those days are gone and still
If I did, I would, you know I will
Never feel the same
If I don't get you
Back Again
For who am I to who are you
To who are we Sir
If underneath there's nothing more
Than meets the eye
And if for that you think I'm crazy
Don't forget you once delayed me
Wonder why

And who am I to who are you
To who are we Sir
When underneath there's nothing more
Than apple pie
A little sour perhaps, but one day
Given time perhaps in some way
We'll know why
To you I gave my everything
Plus of course my Autumn and my Spring
Oh and I won't half feel the pain
If I don't get you
If I don't get you
If I don't get you
If I don't get you
Back Again

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 [?]
