Early in the morning
Expressing the early part of the day.
'Bout the break of day
Referring to the dawn or sunrise.
That's when my baby went away
Indicating the departure of the speaker's lover.
Come back baby I wish you would
Expressing a desire for the lover to return.
There's crying and the feeling won't do no good
Describing the emotional pain of crying with no resolution.
I tell you now baby I feel just right
Conveying a positive emotional state, possibly in anticipation of a reunion.
Tell me now baby what you're trying to do
Asking the lover about their intentions or actions.
'Cause I love me and some other man too
Revealing a complex romantic situation where the speaker loves both themselves and another person.
Come on now baby give me one more chance
Pleading for another chance from the lover.
You know I still love you want to give you romance
Expressing ongoing love and a desire to provide romance.
Give you romance ooh
Reiterating the commitment to offering romance.
All night long, in my arms
Describing a prolonged, intimate embrace.
Oooh yeah
Expressing satisfaction or pleasure.
Early in the morning
Repeating the earlier reference to the morning.
'Bout the break of day
Reiterating the departure of the lover.
That's when my baby went away
Echoing the sentiment of longing for the lover's return.
