Lyrics


Ever since I was a little girl even younger than I am now

Reflecting on her feelings from childhood, expressing a positive and special connection to someone.

I always felt good about you in a special way

Feeling good about the person in a unique way, despite not understanding why.

I don´t know how

Expressing uncertainty about the source of the positive feelings.

And we always seem to find our way back to the love

Highlighting a recurring pattern of returning to a shared love.

that we are sharing

Emphasizing the enduring nature of their shared love.

And every time we say it´s over

Acknowledging the cyclical nature of their relationship, with repeated breakups.

I can't forget you sweet loving

Expressing difficulty in forgetting the sweet memories of love.

After every time we brake up things always turn out the same

Despite breakups, things consistently return to the same state.

I tell myself that I have shaped up

Admitting self-improvement attempts but recognizing continued involvement in the relationship game.

but I am still a part of this game

Acknowledging a persistent connection to the relationship dynamics.

You always seem to come back into my life

Noting the person's recurrent presence in her life.

When I thought I´ve forgotten you, you always show up

Expressing surprise at the person's reappearance, challenging her attempts to forget.

It´s drivin´ me crazy, it´s got me going wild

Feeling emotionally overwhelmed and uncertain about the future.

And I don´t know if this is ever gonna stop

Expressing uncertainty about the possibility of the cycle ending.

You always seem to come back into my world

Hoping for a stable relationship this time.

And this time I hope we´re stayin´ on track

Desiring exclusivity in the relationship, not wanting to be with anyone else.

´Cause I don´t want to be anybodyelses girl

Expressing a wish for this to be the final return of the person.

I hope this is the last time you´ll ever come back

Stating the desire for the person's return due to being a good man.

I want you back ´cause you´re a good man,

Highlighting positive qualities of the person, especially in expressing love.

The kinda´ man who loves you all through the night

Acknowledging that things may not go as planned but feeling right.

And though it never turns out like I planned

Accepting the unpredictability of the relationship with a sense of satisfaction.

Somehow it feels so right

Encouraging the person not to run away, affirming a lasting place in her heart.

So this time, boy don´t run away

Pledging enduring love until death separates them.

´Cause you´ll always have a place in my heart

Reiterating a lack of strength to be proud, desiring a return to the past.

And I swear I´m gonna love you ´til the day,

Expressing the desire for the person to come back and stay, declaring love.

´Til the day that death do us part

Reaffirming deep love and commitment until death.

Chorus

I don´t have the strength to be proud anymore

Expressing emotional exhaustion and a longing for the past.

I want it all to be just like before

Desiring a return to a previous state of the relationship.

I guess what I´m really tryin´ to say

Clarifying the ultimate message: a plea for the person to come back and stay.

Is that I want you to come back, Come back to stay,

Reiterating the strong desire for the person to return.

I love you

Expressing love unequivocally.

(´cause I really love you) want to (I just want to) get closer

Emphasizing the intensity of the desire to get closer to the person.

(get much closer) than ever (more than ever)

Expressing a profound emotional connection and a heightened desire for closeness.

´Cause I love you

Reiterating the depth of love.

Chorus

Yes I do, yes I do I do love you baby and I´m telling you now

Affirming love unequivocally and declaring it openly.

When I´m down you bring me up and when I´m up you bring me down

Highlighting the person's impact on emotional highs and lows.

So what am I suppose to do when all I want is

Expressing confusion and longing for reconciliation.

to get back with you baby
