Blue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want you to know
I'll be back some day
When you're alone
I want you to know
I'll be back some day
Away for so long
To make our own paradise
But dreams don't come easy you've gotta believe me
You know this deep inside
But it's not long now
Till I'm on my way
I keep wishing tomorrow was yesterday
You're my everything
That won't disappear
Girl you've got nothing to fear
If you're alone, I want you to know I'll be back someday
Don't you ever let go
Baby, hold tight through the cold lonely night
Just wait for me till I get home
When you're on your own
I want you to know
I'll be there for you, I could never let go
I realise that you want me to stay
But hold on
I'll be back someday Be back someday, someday.
When I return, I want to see
This beautiful baby who's still loving me
With tears in her eyes but a smile on her face
Impatiently we'll embrace
But it's not long now
Till' I'm on my way
I keep praying tomorrow was yesterday
You're my everything that won't disappear
Girl you've got nothing to fear
If you're alone, I want you to know I'll be back someday
Don't you ever let go
Baby, hold tight through the cold lonely night
Just wait for me till I get home
When you're on your own
I want you to know
I'll be there for you, I could never let go
I realise that you want me to stay
But hold on
I'll be back someday Be back someday, someday.
And when I go, I'll be loving you still
Baby you will never know, just how lonely I'll feel
You know I really gotta go, but I wish I could stay
Hold on, just hold on, I'll be back
If you're alone, I want you to know I'll be back someday
Don't you ever let go
Baby, hold tight through the cold lonely night
Just wait for me till I get home
When you're on your own
I want you to know
I'll be there for you, I could never let go
I realise that you want me to stay
But hold on
I'll be back someday Be back someday, someday.
"Back Some Day" by Blue is a song about leaving, but with the promise of returning. It speaks to the emotions involved with having to go away, perhaps for work or other reasons, and the longing that comes with being away from those we love. The lyrics suggest that the singer is leaving to "make our own paradise," but also acknowledge that "dreams don't come easy." Despite the challenges, the singer promises to return, telling the listener "I'll be back someday."
The chorus of the song repeats the message of the verses: "If you're alone, I want you to know / I'll be back someday / Don't you ever let go / Baby, hold tight through the cold lonely night / Just wait for me till I get home / When you're on your own / I want you to know / I'll be there for you, I could never let go / I realize that you want me to stay / But hold on / I'll be back someday." The singer is reassuring the listener that they will not be forgotten, and promises to be there for them when they need them.
Overall, "Back Some Day" is a song about the power of love and the commitment to return to those we leave behind. It can be interpreted as a message of hope and a reminder that, even when we are apart, we are not alone.

When you're alone
In times of solitude
I want you to know
I need you to be aware
