Come Back Baby
Aretha Franklin(아레사 플랭클린) Lyrics

Oh come back, baby
The singer is asking her lover to come back to her.

Baby please don't go, yeah
The singer is pleading with her lover not to leave her.

'Cause the way I love you
The singer loves her lover deeply and in a unique way.

You'll never know
The singer believes that her lover will never truly understand the depth of her love.

Come back baby
The singer is repeating her request for her lover to come back to her.

Let's talk it over, yeah one more time
The singer wants to have a conversation with her lover to work out their issues and is asking for one more chance to do so.

Well I admit, baby (yes I admit)
The singer is admitting fault in the situation.

That I was wrong (that I was wrong)
The singer is specifically admitting that she made a mistake.

Don't you know, baby (don't you know baby)
The singer is addressing her lover directly, emphasizing how important their relationship is to her.

You've been gone too long (gone too long)
The singer feels that her lover has been away for much too long.

Now one of these days, baby (one day)
The singer hints that if her lover does not return soon, something will change.

And it won't be long, no, no (one day soon)
Whatever is going to happen is going to happen soon.

You gonna look for me, yeah
The singer believes that her lover will eventually come back looking for her.

And I'll be gone
The singer warns that by the time her lover comes looking for her, it will be too late because she will have already moved on.

If I could holler
The singer is expressing a desire to scream out.

Like a mountain jack
A reference to the loud, high-pitched calls made by a certain type of bird.

People must learn how to give
The singer feels that people need to learn how to be more selfless in their relationships.

Call my baby back
The singer wants her lover to return to her.

Let's talk it over one more time
The singer is repeating her desire to have a conversation with her lover to work things out.

Yeah, one more time, yeah
The singer is emphasizing her point with the repetition of the previous line.

Come back baby
The singer is once again asking her lover to return to her.

Let's talk it over (let's work it out)
The singer is asking for a chance to reconcile and work out their issues.

Oh yeah, one more time
The singer is once again emphasizing her point with repetition.

I say, one more, one more time
The singer is begging one more time for a chance to talk things through with her lover.

Oh, one more time
The singer is again expressing her desire for one more chance.

Baby, just one more time
The singer is pleading with her lover for one last opportunity to work things out.

Oh, one more time
The singer is once again expressing her desire for one more chance to reconcile.

Yeah one more time
The song ends with the singer repeating her plea one more time.
