Baby Come Back
BC & The Basic Boom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Baby, baby
Come back and stay for good this time)

The topic is love, what's it all about?
The sense, the meaning, I'll explain it to the crowd
Yo, now listen up, when you're in love ignore your clock
'Cause love needs time and it's just combination point
Show your feelings, let the body be the joint

The body is the peel, love the core
Feelings are the pits, achin' to see more
Of life, yeah, that'll make her rock
Out of your body, out of their heart

True love, there ain't nothin' above
Your love, her love, his eyes coming off
Sexual feelings do come so easily
Single soft touch, your shield starts squeezily

Whether it's good, bad, right or wrong
We're blinded by the fact that love's too strong

(Baby, baby
Come back and stay for good this time
Come back, come back and stay)

(Baby, baby
Come back and stay for good this time
Come back, come back and stay)

Verse two, yes, the sequel
Another sequence, not a neeples or equal
β€˜Bout a girl, a lady that I once met
She's the kinda girl that a man could never forget

'Cause she's all on my mind, all the time
All the time on my mind, yeah, she's mine
This is the tale about how we got acquainted
I told you 'bout love, they remind me as example

We were sittin' on the sofa, she caught my eye
I thought: "Move closer, next to her side"
I said: "Hello", she said: "Hi", I was wondering why
Why this lady caught my eye

I knew she had a friend, but that's not it
She knew that she had a friend, I said: "What the heck"
My eyes were hot in every step she took
Deep breath??, yes, every look

I looked her deep in the eyes, eyes full of love
She knew as well as I do that she was lost
So to me, her crown Prince BC
I snatched a girl, turned her into my property

I give her love, caress her like my pet
Got her to the altar, a walk she won't forget, so

(Baby, baby
Come back and stay for good this time
Come back, come back and stay)

(Baby, baby
Come back and stay for good this time
Come back, come back and stay)

Just last night, midst of a love song
I was the victim of a very sad phone call
Took the buggle off the hook and said: "Hello?"
On the other side it was my girl, yo

Cryin' and cryin' and cryin', she couldn't stop
I've tried to soothe her, I said: "What's up?"
"I can't do it", she said, "'Cause I still love him"
You feel kinda puzzled, honey, you just bug him

A convincing no, give in tired to your woe
Urge to conversate, but I couldn't say a tone
To her, man, I felt kinda hurt
The first time in my life that I was deserted

By the girl, the real one, a dandy, I was daffy on
Tryin' to play cool but feelings kept flowin' on
She said: "Listen, Rob Bred, we gotta talk
Tomorrow afternoon, your crib, four o'clock

I replied: "Okay" and put down the horn
Okay, it was the end, I never saw her anymore
If you're ever involved in a piece like this
Make sure there's no other and then put a kiss

(Baby, baby
Come back and stay for good this time
Come back, come back and stay)

(Baby, baby
Come back and stay for good this time
Come back, come back and stay)





(Come back and stay)

Got her to the altar, a walk she won't forget, so
We got married, and it was a momentous occasion


Just last night, midst of a love song
Recently, while I was listening to a love song


I was the victim of a very sad phone call
I received a call that made me feel sad


Took the buggle off the hook and said: "Hello?"
I answered the phone, and said hello


On the other side it was my girl, yo
It was my girlfriend calling me


Cryin' and cryin' and cryin', she couldn't stop
She was crying uncontrollably


I've tried to soothe her, I said: "What's up?"
I tried to comfort her and asked her what was wrong


"I can't do it", she said, "'Cause I still love him"
She told me she couldn't be with me because she still loved someone else


You feel kinda puzzled, honey, you just bug him
I was confused and didn't know what to do


A convincing no, give in tired to your woe
She was very convincing in her reasons for not being with me


Urge to conversate, but I couldn't say a tone
I wanted to talk to her more, but I didn't know what to say


To her, man, I felt kinda hurt
I was hurt by her rejection


The first time in my life that I was deserted
I was abandoned for the first time in my life


By the girl, the real one, a dandy, I was daffy on
I was in love with her, and she was the one I thought was perfect for me


Tryin' to play cool but feelings kept flowin' on
I tried to play it cool, but I couldn't help how I felt


She said: "Listen, Rob Bred, we gotta talk
She wanted to have a serious talk with me


Tomorrow afternoon, your crib, four o'clock
We planned to meet the next day at my place at four


I replied: "Okay" and put down the horn
I agreed and hung up the phone


Okay, it was the end, I never saw her anymore
That was the end of our relationship, and I never saw her again


If you're ever involved in a piece like this
If you're ever in a situation like this


Make sure there's no other and then put a kiss
Make sure there are no other people involved before committing to a relationship

This is seriously the most UNDERATED song in music history!! I'm only 26. This song is heartbreaking but hopeful at the same time. Definitely one of my favorites of all time. Maybe one day I'll see her again.
