Until You Come Back to Me
Longing in Silence: Marcia Griffiths' Heartfelt Quest for Love
Lyrics
Though you don't call anymore
Expressing the absence of communication from the person.
I sit and wait in vain
Waiting in hope, but with no result.
I guess I'll rap on your door
Contemplating reaching out by knocking on the person's door.
Tap on your window pane
Trying to get the person's attention by tapping on their window.
I want to tell you baby
Expressing the desire to communicate and share personal changes.
The changes I've been going through
Reflecting on personal growth during the absence of the person.
Missing you
Feeling the emotional impact of missing the person.
Listen you
Calling attention to the importance of listening.
'Till you come back to me
Declaring the intention to wait for the person's return.
That's what I'm gonna do
Reaffirming the commitment to wait patiently.
Why did you have to decide
Questioning the reasons behind the person's decision to end the relationship.
You had to set me free
Acknowledging the necessity of letting go.
I'm gonna swallow my pride
Expressing the willingness to humble oneself.
I'm gonna beg you to (please baby please) see me
Pleading for the person to see and understand the feelings.
I'm gonna walk by meself
Demonstrating determination to prove the sincerity of love.
Just to prove that my love is true
Emphasizing the commitment to love and demonstrate it alone.
Oh, for you baby
Reiterating the love and longing for the person.
'Till you come back to me
Confirming the resolve to wait for the person's return.
That's what I'm gonna do
Reaffirming the commitment to wait patiently.
Living for you my dear
Describing the challenges of living without the person.
Is like living in a world of constant fear
Expressing the emotional difficulty and anxiety without the person.
In my plea, I've got to make you see
Stating the need to make the person understand the relationship is deteriorating.
That our love is dying
Acknowledging the decline of the love between them.
Although your phone you ignore
Noting the person's avoidance of phone calls.
Somehow I must explain
Expressing the need to explain despite being ignored.
I'm gonna rap on your door
Repeating the desire to reach out by knocking on the door.
Tap on your window pane
Reiterating the attempt to get the person's attention through the window.
I'm gonna camp on your step
Declaring the intent to persistently stay close.
Until I get through to you
Expressing determination to communicate until successful.
I've got to change your view baby
Emphasizing the need to change the person's perspective.
'Till you come back to me
Reaffirming the commitment to wait for the person's return.
That's what I'm gonna do
Confirming the resolution to patiently wait for the person.
