Baby Won't You Please Come Home
Yearning Melody: Craving Love's Return
Lyrics
I've got the blues, I feel so lonely
I'm experiencing sadness and loneliness.
I'd give the world if I could only
I would give anything to bring you back.
Make you understand
Expressing a desire for the other person to comprehend.
It truly would be grand
It would be wonderful if you truly understood.
I'm gonna telephone my baby
Planning to call my loved one.
Ask him won't you please come home
Asking my baby to come home through the telephone.
Oh, when you gone
Feeling troubled and anxious when you're not around.
I'm worried all day long
Constant worry throughout the day when you're absent.
Baby, won't you please come home
Pleading for the return of the loved one.
Baby, won't you please come home
Repetition of the plea for the baby to come home.
I have tried in vain
Expressing unsuccessful attempts to move on.
Nevermore to call your name
No longer able to call out your name in vain.
When you left you broke my heart
Heartbreak and emotional pain caused by your departure.
That will never make us part
Belief that the broken heart won't lead to separation.
Every hour in the day
Continual expression of longing throughout the day.
You will hear me say
Repetition of the plea for the baby to come home.
Baby, won't you please come home
Reiteration of the strong desire for the baby to return.
I mean, baby, won't you please come home
Repetition for emphasis on the plea for the baby to come home.
Baby, won't you please come home
Calling for the baby to come home due to the mother's loneliness.
'Cause your mama's all alone
Highlighting the mother's solitary state in the absence of the baby.
I have tried in vain
Reiteration of unsuccessful attempts to move on.
Nevermore to call your name
No longer able to call out your name in vain.
When you left you broke my heart
Heartbreak and emotional pain caused by your departure.
That will never make us part
Belief that the broken heart won't lead to separation.
Landlord's gettin' worse
The situation is worsening, and the landlord is becoming more demanding.
I gotta move May the first
Necessity to relocate by the first of May due to financial issues.
Baby, won't you please come home
Repetition of the plea for the baby to come home.
I need money
Expressing a need for financial assistance.
Baby, won't you please come home
Repetition of the plea for the baby to come home.
