Finally Back
Joe Lyrics

Oh yeah, baby
Expressing excitement and enthusiasm.

I'm not going nowhere
I'm here to stay.

I'm staying right here
I'll be faithful and committed.

Hey baby, how are you doing
Initiating a conversation.

Yeah, I knew I've been wrong for a while
Admitting to past mistakes and regrets.

But I'm back to say
Returning to make amends.

I want to stay right here with you
Expressing a desire to be with the person.

Yes, I know
Acknowledging awareness of things to say.

There are a few things I just want to tell you
Preparing the listener for some important words.

I've been a fool for leaving, leaving you all alone
Realizing and admitting to foolish behavior.

I should have known better, baby
Recognizing the need for better judgment.

Knew you had a house and a home
Understanding the stability and security that was abandoned.

My conscience told me, baby
Acknowledging the internal voice of reason.

The best things in life are free
Valuing the intangible aspects of life over material possessions.

My heart is locked
Feeling guarded and hesitant.

Baby, you hold the key
The person has the power to unlock the singer's heart.

I am here
Present and fully committed.

After I'm so wrong
Despite previous misbehavior.

Finally back, finally back
Finally returning and making things right.

Well well, wrong
Humorous acknowledgement of errors.

I fantasize of a good time
Reminiscing about positive experiences.

Moments that we shared, oh yeah
Recalling shared memories.

You showed me more ways
Sharing personal growth and enlightenment attributed to the person.

Baby you really care
Feeling appreciated and loved by the person.

The choice is yours, first tell me now
Giving the person the power to make a decision.

Baby, I'm begging you please
Expressing sincere pleading and urgency.

Give me another chance and I'll make you see
Offering to prove the value of the relationship.

Don't worry about a single thing
Assuring that everything will be okay.

I'll be right there for you, you'll see
Promising support and dedication.

I will give you everything you need
Offering to fulfill the essential needs of the person.

So baby don't give up on me
Pleading to not abandon the relationship.

I've come to show that I can
Exhibiting capability to correct past mistakes.

That love I had was always there
Affirming the constancy of love despite absence.

I know I've been away too long
Acknowledging a prolonged absence.

And now I'm finally back right where I belong
Expressing elation about returning to the appropriate place.

Where I belong, baby
Repeating acknowledgement of proper place.

I'm right where I belong
Affirming satisfaction with current status.
