English
Uh whoa whoa
Let me tell ya now
Uh uh mmm mmm mmm

When I had you to myself
I didn’t want you around
Those pretty faces always made you
Stand out in a crowd

But someone picked you from the bunch
One glance was all it took
Now it’s much too late for me
To take a second look

Oh baby give me one more chance
[Jeong/Sa/Chae] (To show you that I love you)
Won’t you please let me
[Jeong/Sa/Chae] (Back in your heart)
Oh darling I was blind to let you go
[Jeong/Sa/Chae] (Let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)

Yes I do now
(I want you back)
Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
(I want you back)
Na na na na

Trying to live without your love
Is one long sleepless night
Let me show you girl
That I know wrong from right

Every street you walk on
I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the girl
I didn’t even want around
(Let me tell ya now)

Oh baby all I need is one more chance
[Mo/Mi/Da/Tzu] (To show you that I love you)
Won’t you please let me
[Mo/Mi/Da/Tzu] (Back in your heart)
Oh darling I was blind to let you go
[Mo/Mi/Da/Tzu] (Let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms

All I want, all I need
All I want, all I need (Ooh yeah)

Turutu turuturu tutu tuturuturu tutu
Tuturu tururutu tuturu turururu

[Jeong/Mo] Doo wap, doo wap

Ooh, just one more chance
To show you that I love you baby (Baby)
Baby (Baby)
Baby (Baby)

(I want you back)
Forget what happened then
(I want you back)
And let me live again

Oh baby I was blind to let you go
[Jeong/Sa/Chae] (Let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
Spare me of this cause
(I want you back)
And give back what I lost yeah

Oh baby I need one more chance ha
I tell you that I love you baby (Oh)
Baby (Oh)
Baby (Oh)

I want you back
I want you back
I want you back
I want you back
I want you back

      1. This is falsetto and by itself one’s vocal qualities are not clear. I don’t know why Nayeon needs to imitate it when it’s not her part. People don’t say Dance the Night Away’s F5 high notes are not Nayeon but Jihyo, but in the end, Nayeon sang it herself. The ad-lib parts of Yes or Yes also showed Nayeon lip-synching the chorus she sang. Why would she pretend to sing someone else’s part?

    1. You can also see Jeongyeon, Sana, and Chaeyoung singing the “all” parts in the first chorus. This may not mean anything, as I didn’t see anyone singing them in the second or third choruses, but I wonder why they specifically sang it.

          1. The only thing is, ini the second chorus, the “Let you go baby” kind of sounds like Momo to me

  1. Also, to back up my last comment, Momo would get a really low amount of lines in the distribution (not to say that’s not normal), like even lower than Chaeyoung’s maybe. I also still think the “All that I want…” is Mina. Mina doesn’t get a lot of lines in the song without it, and with Nayeon having it, she has like third of the lines.

    1. I updated with Momo singing the 2nd chorus (because of the dance formation, these four are highlighted). And it’s not uncommon for Nayeon to sing a lot.
      + the last “Let you go baby” sounds like the one in the first chorus to me

  2. Oh baby all I need is one more chance
    [Mo/Mi/Da/Tzu] (To show you that I love you)
    Won’t you please let me
    [Mo/Mi/Da/Tzu] (Back to your heart)
    Oh darling I was blind to let you go
    [Mo/Mi/Da/Tzu] (Let you go baby)
    But now since I see you in his arms

    I think “Back to your heart” is “Back in your heart”
    It sounds the same as the first chorus

    Oh baby I was blind to let you go
    [Jeong/Sa/Chae] (Let you go baby)
    But now since I see you in his arms
    (I want you back)
    Spare me of this cause
    (I want you back)
    Give me back what I lost yeah

    “Give me back what I lost yeah” sounds to me like “(And) Get back what I lost yeah”

  3. I’m pretty sure the

    All i want, All I need, all I want, all I need

    Is all Mina.
    It doesn’t sound like Nayeon at all mainly because the voice sounds thinner then Nayeon’s vocals and Mina has a thinner voice then mina

  4. Two things:

    1) At the beginning, it sounds like this:

    [Tzuyu]: Doo wap, doo wap
    Ahaha ahaha ahaha ahaha
    [Jihyo]: Mmm mmm Mmm
    Oh woah woah oh woah
    [Sana]: (Let me tell you now)
    [Tzuyu]: (Ahaha ahaha ahaha ahaha)
    [Jihyo]: Oh oh, mmm mmm mmm

    I thought of it originally because I had a dream in which the color coding was similar to this xD, but I realized the lines do kind of sound like Tzuyu, so I watched a fancam, and it shows her mouthing the words, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they were her lines. Also, the line changes for Jihyo were purely for convenience, because they sound a bit more like what she’s singing.

    2) This stanza:

    Oh baby I was blind to let you go
    [Jeong/Sa/Chae] (Let you go baby)
    But now since I see you in his arms
    (I want you back)
    Spare me of this cause
    (I want you back)
    And give back what I lost yeah

    To me, it kind of sounds like a [Mo/Mi/Da/Tzu] line, and I looked at the fancam, and they sure are in the front, meanwhile Jeongyeon, Sana, and Chaeyoung are in the back separated by Nayeon, so I think it’s probably Momo, Mina, Dahyun, and Tzuyu.

    Thx!

          1. Sry, my mistake, I meant the lines for Jihyo were changed to different words in my comment. I just think these represent the sound of the words she’s singing better than the current ones. But the “Oh oh” in my original comment sounds more like “Uh huh” to me now though.
