Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Want you back in my life
I want you back in my life
Want you back by my side
Cause that's where you belong
Oh and I
I won't give you up
I will never stop
My love is much too strong
I want you back in my life
Want you back by my side
Cause that's where you belong
Oh and I
I won't give you up
I will never stop
My love is much too strong
Look at me
Standing here
Crying out my final tears
Look at me in the rain
All that I won't name again
Look at me
Standing here
Crying out my final tears
Look at me in the rain
Calling out your name again
Remember when you told me
You didn't want anybody else but me
And I'm that same girl
That's all you need to see
I want you back in my life
Want you back by my side
Cause that's where you belong
Oh and I
I won't give you up
I will never stop
My love is much too strong
Look at me
Standing here
Crying out my final tears




Look at me in the rain
All that I won't name again

There's no two ways about it... the 90s was absolutely the decade of Dance. All the best dance songs, including this gem came out of the 90s. Yeah those were some of the best days of my life. I miss them

@mryan4452

Totally agree, late 90s in particular

@markbrocklehurst3764

Spot on. Late 90's-mid to late noughties was a fantastic decade of dance and trance. Feel blessed to have been out clubbing when tunes like this belting out
