Come Back Silly Girl
Yearning Melodies: Rediscovering Love's Echo in 'Come Back Silly Girl'
Lyrics
I go round moping, and I go around blue
Feeling sad and downhearted, experiencing a sense of gloom
I made you cry cause I had been untrue
I caused you emotional pain by being unfaithful
And now I cry for you
Now I'm experiencing sorrow and regret for hurting you
Won't you come back silly girl
Requesting the person to return, addressing them affectionately as a "silly girl"
come back to me
An earnest plea for the person to come back to the speaker
Come back silly girl can't you see
Reiterating the request for the person to return, emphasizing love
I'm in love
Expressing deep romantic feelings for the person
Your mother tells me that you're not at home
Information relayed from the mother that the person is not available at home
Each time I call you on the telephone
Each attempt to connect via telephone is unsuccessful
Oh I'm so lost and alone
Feeling lost and lonely without the person
Come back, my love
A plea for the person's return, expressing love
Come back, my love
Repetition of the plea, emphasizing the intensity of love
Don't know how long I can go on this way
Expressing the difficulty of continuing without the person
I think of you most every day
Constantly thinking about the person
I only hope and pray
Hoping and praying for the person's return
Come back silly girl can't you see I'm in love
Reiteration of the plea for the person to come back, emphasizing love
Come back silly girl can't you see I'm in love
Continued emphasis on the plea for the person's return
Come back silly girl can't you see I'm in love
Repeating the plea, underscoring the depth of love for the person
