Talk To Me
°²ÄÝËþ±´¿Ë(Anita Baker) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You stand all alone
On your own
Please come inside from the storm
Stand where it's warm
I can see you're in need
Baby please talk to me now

Swear nothing is wrong
You're so strong
Baby don't hold this inside
Relax your pride
Let it go, set it free
My baby talk to me now

What's wrong, wrong with you
Why don't you tell me what you're going thru, darlin'
What's wrong, wrong with you
Why don't you tell me what you're going thru
I can help you if...you let me baby yes I can

I understand
Here's my hand
Why stand alone in the dark
Open up your heart
Let this go, set it free
Now my baby talk to me now

What's wrong, wrong with you
Why don't you tell me what you're going thru, darlin'
What's wrong, wrong with you
Why don't you tell me what you're going thru
I can help you if...you let me baby yes I can


I understand (I understand it baby)
That you're only one man
So much you can't take, baby (I understand it baby)
Yes I understand that you've only got two hands

Stare into space
I see shadows of pain
Across your face
You avoid my advice
You avoid my embrace baby

What's wrong, wrong with you
Why don't you tell me what you're going thru
What's wrong, wrong with you
Why don't you tell me what you're going thru
I can help you if...you let me baby yes I can
(Repeat til fade)

Ablibs til fade:

I won't tell a single soul
My my my baby, yes yes,
You got to, I got to, we got to talk about it,
No doubt about it,
Let it go , set it free,
I'd like to listen, I'd like to listen baby,
Tell me, tell me everything,
Baby baby
I will understand, I will understand I promise baby
Tell me now, tell me, tell me
Hey...
I believe...
Hey, hey, baby
Talk about it baby
Talk to me
Don't you hold nothing in baby
Don't you hold it baby
Ain't no reason
Ain't no reason in the world for you to do this baby
Not like this




Ain't no reason
Ain't no reason, reason in the world...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Talk To Me" by Anita Baker talks about the importance of communication in a relationship. The song starts with the singer urging her partner, who is standing outside in the storm feeling alone, to come inside and share his troubles with her. She assures him that he needs to open up to her and that he doesn't have to hold his emotions to himself. She lets him know that there's nothing wrong with admitting that he needs help and that she's here for him whenever he's ready to talk.


The second verse of the song is a repetition of the first verse, except this time with a slight change in lyrics. In this verse, Anita sings about how she understands that it's hard for him to seek help and that he might be hesitant to share his feelings with her. However, she reassures him that she's here for him to lean on, and she will try to understand his issues without any judgment. She reminds him that she won't tell anyone about his problems, and he's safe to trust her with his vulnerabilities.


Overall, the song highlights the importance of talking about your problems with your loved ones instead of bottling it up. It's crucial to seek support and help to overcome whatever hurdles you're facing, and it's okay to admit that you need someone to lean on during tough times.

As someone who's been watching RackaRacka since childhood, this is putting a huge smile on my face to see how far they come. They were making funny videos with Ronald McDonald, now they're making a full on horror film. I am so flipping proud of these two and I cannot wait to see what this has in store.

@Honeygarlicrib

@nightponyinrface6009
