Babylon
Eyerer & Klein Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To the day we parted
And all the ways
You were broken hearted
Take a trip
Everyday in my mind
I see your face
It's playing back
Like a broken record
I remember
Every tear in your eye
(If I do what I know)
I'd walk back in time
(I will write every wrong)
Oohh
I would change every line
(And you'll be here right now)
Just like yesterday
(But you'd feel no more doubts)
When you hear me say
You're the only one I want
(You're the only one, yeah)
You're the only one
I need in my life
(In my life, baby)
You're the only one I love
(I love, love, love)
You're the only one
I need in my life
I see the world
Through a haze of mem'ries
And other girls
Don't mean
A damn thing to me
It's kinda sad
How they just don't compare
(Time will tell
Let's wait and see)
(If our love
We had was meant to be)
Coz I know
We got a future out there
(Coz you're still my girl)
I don't care what they say
(Let's go back to our world)
Baby don't you throw
This love away
(Coz I still believe)
In the magic of us
(This is the matter of time)
And it's a matter of trial
Now girl it took sometime
To get real with myself
Now love
Ain't easy sometimes
But if you find it
We'll stay together

I'm going back
I'm revisiting the past
To the day we parted
To the day we separated
And all the ways
And all the reasons
You were broken hearted
You were emotionally hurt
Take a trip
Imagining going back in time
Everyday in my mind
Every day in my thoughts
I see your face
I see an image of you
I recall it few word
I remember it clearly
It's playing back
It's repeating over & over
Like a broken record
Like a faulty playback
I remember
I can recall
Every tear in your eye
Every drop of tears in your eyes
(If I do what I know)
(If I make the right decision)
I'd walk back in time
I would go back to the past
(I will write every wrong)
(I will fix every mistake)
Oohh
Emotional interjection
I would change every line
I would correct every aspect
(And you'll be here right now)
(And you'd be near me now)
Just like yesterday
Just like how it was before
(But you'd feel no more doubts)
(But you wouldn't have any doubts)
When you hear me say
When you listen to me
You're the only one I want
You're the only one I desire
(You're the only one, yeah)
(You're the only one, yeah)
You're the only one
You're the sole person
I need in my life
I require in my existence
(In my life, baby)
(In my life, dear)
You're the only one I love
You're the only one I cherish
(I love, love, love)
(I love, love, love)
I see the world
I perceive the world
Through a haze of mem'ries
Through a fog of memories
And other girls
Other females
Don't mean
Don't signify
A damn thing to me
Anything significant to me
It's kinda sad
It's a bit disheartening
How they just don't compare
How they are not of equal standing
(Time will tell
(The future will reveal
Let's wait and see)
Let's be patient and observe)
(If our love
(If our affection
We had was meant to be)
We had was destined)
Coz I know
Because I believe
We got a future out there
We have a future ahead
(Coz you're still my girl)
(Because you're still mine)
I don't care what they say
I'm not bothered about their comments
(Let's go back to our world)
(Let's revisit our past)
Baby don't you throw
Dear, don't discard
This love away
This affection we share
(Coz I still believe)
(Because I still have faith)
In the magic of us
In the special quality of our union
(This is the matter of time)
(This is only a question of time)
And it's a matter of trial
And it's a case of experimentation
Now girl it took sometime
Now dear, it took a while
To get real with myself
To become honest with myself
Now love
Now affection
Ain't easy sometimes
Isn't always trouble-free
But if you find it
But if you come across it
We'll stay together
We'll be united
