Baby Come Back
Yearning for Love: Lisa Stansfield's Heartfelt Plea
Lyrics
Spending all my nights.
Expressing the speaker's emotional struggle during the nights.
All my money going out of the town
Financial and emotional investment in activities away from the speaker's usual environment.
Doing anything just to get you off of my mind
Desperation to distract oneself from thoughts of the person in question.
But when the morning comes
Reference to the start of a new day.
And I"m back where I started again
Returning to the initial emotional state, facing the same challenges.
Trying to forget you is just a waste of time
Acknowledging the futility of trying to forget the person.
Baby come back
An earnest plea for the person to return.
Any kind of fool could see
Emphasizing that anyone can see the importance of the person.
There was something in everything about you
Highlighting the significance of every aspect of the person.
Baby come back
Repetition of the plea for the person to come back.
You can blame it all on me
Taking responsibility for the mistakes and asking for forgiveness.
I was wrong and I just can't live without you
Expressing the speaker's inability to live without the person.
All day long wearing a mask of false bravado
Wearing a facade of confidence and strength throughout the day.
Trying to keep up a smile that hides a tear
Struggling to maintain a happy appearance while hiding true feelings.
But as the sun goes down I get that empty feeling again
Feeling empty and sad as the day progresses.
How I wish to God that you were here
Expressing a strong desire for the person to be present.
Baby come back
Repetition of the plea for the person to come back.
Any kind of fool could see
Reiterating the obvious importance of the person.
There was something in everything about you
Emphasizing the value of every aspect of the person.
Baby come back
Repetition of the plea for the person to come back.
You can blame it all on me
Taking responsibility for the mistakes and asking for forgiveness.
I was wrong and I just can't live without you
Expressing the speaker's inability to live without the person.
Now that I've pulled it up all together
Stating that the speaker has gathered themselves.
Give me the chance to make you see
Requesting an opportunity to prove love and commitment.
Have you used up all the love in your heart
Questioning if the person has exhausted their love for the speaker.
Is there nothing left for me, is there nothing left for me
Expressing concern about the possibility of no love remaining.
Baby come back
Repetition of the plea for the person to come back.
Any kind of fool could see
Reiterating the obvious importance of the person.
There was something in everything about you
Emphasizing the value of every aspect of the person.
Baby come back
Repetition of the plea for the person to come back.
You can blame it all on me
Taking responsibility for the mistakes and asking for forgiveness.
I was wrong and I just can't live without you
Expressing the speaker's inability to live without the person.
