Winner

Rachel (New Directions):
There were nights when the wind was so cold (Ahh)
That my body froze in bed if I just listened to it right outside the window (Ahh, ahh)
There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust and I just knew my eyes were drying up forever (Forever)

Rachel:
I finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can't remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made

But when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
And you hold me like that
It's so hard to believe
But it's all coming back to me

Rachel with New Directions:
It's all coming back
It's all coming back to me now
There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things I'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed right

Rachel:
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than any laws allow

Rachel with New Directions harmonizing (with New Directions):
Baby, baby, if I kiss you like this
And if you whisper like that
It was lost long ago
(But it's all coming back to me)
If you want me like this
And if you need me like that
It was dead long ago
(But it's all coming back to me)
It's so hard to resist
(And it's all coming back to me)
I can barely recall
(But it's all coming back to me)
Now!
But it's all coming back

Rachel:
But you were history with the slamming of the door
And I made myself so strong again somehow
And I never wasted any of my time on you since then

Rachel with New Directions harmonizing:
But if I touch you like this
And if you kiss me like that
It was so long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you touch me like this
And if I kiss you like that
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me

Rachel with New Directions:
It's all coming back
It's all coming back to me now

Rachel (with New Directions):
There were moments of gold
And there were (flashes of light)
There were things we'd never do again
But then they'd (always seemed right)

Rachel with New Directions harmonizing (with New Directions):
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than all your laws allow

Baby, baby, baby, when you touch me like this
And when you hold me like that
It was gone with the wind
(But it's all coming back to me)
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
Then we see what we want to see
(All coming back to me)
The flesh and the fantasies
(All coming back to me)
I can barely recall
(But it's all coming back to me)
Now!

Rachel:
If you forgive me all this
If I forgive you all that
We forgive and forget
And it's all coming back to me now

New Directions:
It's all coming back to me now

Rachel:
And if we

New Directions:
Oooh

Trivia[]

  • It was revealed at Comic Con 2012 by Lea that she begged Ryan to let her sing a Celine Dion song. When she was given the script for the Nationals episode, Ryan said "You got your Celine Dion song," but it was the wrong one - not the one that Lea wanted. She actually wanted to sing To Love You More, but she didn't want to tell Ryan because she felt bad. Source
