Come See About Me
Clare Bowen Chaley Rose Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I'm lonely (for you)
Smiles have altered (to tears)
But tears won't wash away (the fear)
That you're never, ever gonna return
To ease the fire that within me burns
Keeps me crying, baby, for you
So won't you hurry,
C'mon, boy, see about me
(Come see about me)
Come see about your baby
(Come see about me)
I've given up my friends just for you
My friends are all gone, and you have too
No more peace shall I find
Until you come back and be mine
No matter what you do or say
I'm gonna love you anyway
Keep on crying, baby, for you
I'm gonna keep on sighing, baby, for you
So won't you hurry,
C'mon, boy, see about me
(Come see about me)
Come see about your baby
(Come see about me)
Sometimes love (Hm hm)
Sometimes doubt (Hm hm)
My life's so uncertain (Hm hm)
With you not around (Hm hm)
From my arms, you may be out of reach
But my heart says you're here to keep
Keeps me crying, baby, for you
Keep on crying, baby, for you
So won't you hurry,
C'mon, boy, see about me
(Come see about me)
Come see about your baby
(Come see about me)
You know, I'm so lonely
(Come see about me)
I love you only
(Come see about me)
See about your baby
(Come see about me)
The lyrics of "Come See About Me" by Clare Bowen and Chaley Rose captures the feeling of loneliness and desperation of a woman who is waiting for her lover to return. She has been crying and her smiles have turned into tears, indicating that she is deeply sad and lonely without her lover. She fears that he is never going to return and that the fire within her for him will keep burning forever. She desperately requests him to come back, as she cannot find peace without him. She has even given up her friends for him and feels that her life is uncertain without him. Despite all this, she claims that she will love him anyway, showing the strength of her love.
Through the lyrics, the composers emphasize the theme of love, loneliness, and the desperation felt by someone who is waiting for their lover. The use of repetition in the chorus, with the words "Come see about me," reinforces her plea that her lover returns. The lyrics also suggest a sense of vulnerability in the woman as she is willing to wait for him, keep crying and sighing, and hold onto the hope that he will return.

I've been crying (boo hoo)
I have been weeping
'Cause I'm lonely (for you)
I am sad and feel isolated without you
Smiles have altered (to tears)
My happiness has been replaced with weeping
But tears won't wash away (the fear)
Crying cannot help dissipate the dread that I feel
That you're never, ever gonna return
I have a feeling that you will never come back
To ease the fire that within me burns
To quell the intense passion that I have
Keeps me crying, baby, for you
I can't stop weeping for you
Keeps me sighing, baby, for you
I can't stop yearning for you
So won't you hurry,
Please come back soon
C'mon, boy, see about me
Come and check up on me
(Come see about me)
Come see about your baby
Come back and take care of me
I've given up my friends just for you
I have lost my friends because of you
My friends are all gone, and you have too
I have lost everyone I know, including you
No more peace shall I find
I will not have peace of mind
Until you come back and be mine
Unless you come back to me and stay with me
No matter what you do or say
Even if you say or do something wrong
I'm gonna love you anyway
I will still love you no matter what
Sometimes love (Hm hm)
Love can be complicated
Sometimes doubt (Hm hm)
Uncertainty can arise
My life's so uncertain (Hm hm)
My life is unpredictable
With you not around (Hm hm)
Whenever I am without you
From my arms, you may be out of reach
I may not be able to hold you near me
But my heart says you're here to keep
But I believe you are still with me in spirit
I'm gonna keep on sighing, baby, for you
I will always yearn for you
You know, I'm so lonely
I am very lonely without you
I love you only
I only love you

Me too. They had no idea what to do with her character though. It was so obvious.
