Baby Come Back
Ambrosia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spending all my nights, all my money going out on the town
Doing anything just to get you off of my mind
But when the morning comes, I'm right back where I started again
Trying to forget you is just a waste of time

Chorus:
Baby come back
Any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back
You can blame it all on me
I was wrong and I just can't live without you

All day long wearing a mask of false bravado
Trying to keep up a smile that hides a tear
But as the sun goes down I get that empty feeling again
How I wish to God that you were here

(Chorus)

Now that I've pulled it up all together
Give me the chance to make you see
Have you used up all the love in your heart
Is there nothing left for me, is there nothing left for me





(Chorus to fade)

Overall Meaning

He spends his nights and money going out to distract himself from the pain, but always wakes up the next morning with her on his mind. He acknowledges that he was wrong and begs for her to come back, admitting that he can't live without her. Throughout the verses, he tries to put up a façade of strength during the day, but ultimately feels alone and empty without her at night.


In the chorus, he pleads with his former lover to come back, admitting that even the biggest fool could see there was something special about her. He takes the blame for their separation and admits his love and need for her. The second verse sees the man asking for another chance, hoping that his love hasn't used up all the love in their heart and that there's still something left for him.


Overall, "Baby Come Back" is a heart-wrenching plea from a man who wants nothing more than to be reunited with the love he lost. It's a relatable and emotional tale that has stood the test of time, resonating with listeners for decades.


Line by Line Meaning

Spending all my nights, all my money going out on the town
I have been trying to forget you by going out and enjoying my life, but it is not working


Doing anything just to get you off of my mind
I can't stop thinking about you no matter how hard I try


But when the morning comes, I'm right back where I started again
No matter what I do, I always end up back missing you


Trying to forget you is just a waste of time
I have come to the realization that trying to forget you is a complete waste of time because I still love you


Baby come back
I miss you and I want you to come back to me


Any kind of fool could see
It's obvious to anyone that I need you back in my life


There was something in everything about you
There was something special and unique about you that captured my heart


You can blame it all on me
I take full responsibility for what went wrong and I am asking for forgiveness


I was wrong and I just can't live without you
I admit that I made a mistake and I cannot live without you in my life


All day long wearing a mask of false bravado
I have been pretending to be strong and confident, but I am really hurting on the inside


Trying to keep up a smile that hides a tear
I am trying my best to put on a happy face, but I am really crying on the inside


But as the sun goes down I get that empty feeling again
As the day comes to an end, I feel more and more empty inside without you


How I wish to God that you were here
I pray to God every day that you will come back to me


Now that I've pulled it up all together
I have finally figured things out and I am ready to move forward


Give me the chance to make you see
I want the opportunity to show you how much I love you and how much you mean to me


Have you used up all the love in your heart
I am wondering if you have completely given up on our love and if there is any chance for us to be together again


Is there nothing left for me, is there nothing left for me
I am asking if there is any hope for us to be together again or if it is truly over between us

Trying to forget you is just a waste of time

Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you

All day long, wearing a mask of false bravado
Trying to keep up the smile that hides a tear
But as the sun goes down, I get that empty feeling again
How I wish to God that you were here

Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you

Now that I put it all together
Give me the chance to make you see
Have you used up all the love in your heart
Nothing left for me, ain't there nothing left for me

Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, listen, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you

I was wrong, and I just can't live
