Come See About Me
Longing Echoes: Unveiling the Heartfelt Yearning in Willie Mitchell's Melody
Lyrics
I've been crying
I have been crying
'Cause I'm lonely (for you)
Feeling lonely because of your absence
Smiles have all turned to tears
Smiles have turned into tears
But tears won't wash away the fears
Tears cannot remove the fears I have
That you're never ever gonna return
Concern that you may never come back
To ease the fire that within me burns
Describing the emotional pain burning inside
It keeps me crying baby for you
Expressing continued crying for you
Keeps me sighin' baby for you
Continual sighs for you
So won't you hurry
Asking for a quick return
Come on boy, see about me
Urging the person to come and check on me
(Come see about me)
See about your baby
Requesting attention and care from the person
I've given up my friends just for you
Sacrificing friendships for the sake of the relationship
My friends are gone
Friends are gone, and you are too
And you have too
Feeling a lack of peace without you
No peace shall I find
Anticipating peace only when you return
Until you come back
And be mine
Desiring the person to come back and be mine
No matter what you do or say
Committing to love despite actions or words
I'm gonna love you anyway
Keep on crying baby for you
Continuing to cry for the person
I'm gonna keep sighin' baby for you
Continuing to sigh for the person
So come on hurry
Asking for a prompt return
Come on and see about me
Urging the person to come and see about me
(Come see about me)
See about you baby
Requesting the person to check on me
Sometime's up
Describing the ups and downs in emotions
Sometime's down
My life's so uncertain
Life feels uncertain without you around
With you not around
Expressing the emotional impact of your absence
From my arms you maybe out of reach
You may be physically distant, but my heart feels your presence
But my heart says you're here to keep
Keeps me crying baby for you
Continued crying for the person
Keep on, keep on crying baby for you
Persistently crying for the person
So won't you hurry
Asking for a quick return
Come on boy, see about me (Come see about me)
Urging the person to come and see about me
See about you baby (Come see about me)
You know I'm so lonely (Come see about me)
Expressing loneliness
I love you only (Come see about me)
Declaring love exclusively for the person
See about your baby (Come see about me)
Requesting the person's attention and care
Hurry, hurry
Urging a quick return
