For many years, the group presented a ragamuffin image and a vagabonding lifestyle, travelling around Europe in a double-decker bus and houseboat. Their image was enhanced by their eclectic and often homemade clothing, and the very long hair worn by both male and female members of the band. The Kelly Family began to break up in 2000 and afterwards they performed mostly as individuals or sub-sets of the whole group and took on a more mainstream look.

Come Back
The Kelly Family Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You broke my heart
And you broke my soul
You kept on going on and on
And I was hoping
That you'd come back
Won't you come back to me
Come back to me, come back to me my love
Won't you come back to me
Come back to me my love
Come back to me, come back to me my love
You kept on hoping
For the day to come
When you and I
Would be like one
It never happened
Why should I lie
But I kept hoping that you'll come back
Won't you come back to me
Come back to me my love
Come back to me, come back to me my love
Won't you come back to me
Come back to me my love
Come back to me, come back to me my love
And he will come
And fill my heart
With the love
That I want
Won't you come back to me
Come back to me my love
Come back to me, come back to me my love
Won't you come back to me
Come back to me my love
Come back to me, come back to me my love
Come back to me, come back to me my love
The Kelly Family's song "Come Back" is a heart-wrenching ballad about lost love and the hope for reconciliation. The lyrics express the singer's pain and sorrow at having their heart and soul broken by someone they loved deeply. They long for their lover to come back to them and fill the void in their life. The lyrics are simple but powerful, conveying the raw emotion of the singer's experience.
The first verse establishes the initial heartbreak the singer experienced when their lover left them. The repetition of the phrase "on and on" suggests the suffering was prolonged, and the singer felt left behind. In the second verse, the singer admits to having hope for reconciliation, expressing the desire for their lover to come back and make things right. The chorus repeats the plea for their ex to come back, emphasizing the depth of the singer's longing.
The final verse suggests that the singer has moved on from their ex, stating that someone else will come to fill the void in their heart eventually. However, the chorus still repeats the plea for their ex to come back, suggesting that the memory of their past love still lingers.
Line by Line Meaning
Long time, some time ago
Some time has passed since we were last together
You broke my heart
You hurt me emotionally
And you broke my soul
You hurt me on a deep, spiritual level
You kept on going on and on
You continued with your life and didn't look back
And I was hoping
Despite your actions, I still had hope for us
That you'd come back
That you would return to my life
Come back to me my love
I yearn for your return and your affection
You kept on hoping
You also had hope for us to be together again
For the day to come
For a future time when we could be reunited
When you and I would be like one
When we would be united and in sync with each other
It never happened
Unfortunately, our reunion never came to fruition
Why should I lie
There's no reason for me to try and deceive myself about our situation
But I kept hoping that you'll come back
Regardless, I couldn't shake my hope that things could be different
And he will come
Perhaps someone new will come into my life
And fill my heart
And bring me the love and happiness that I desire
With the love that I want
With the kind of love that I deserve
Come back to me, come back to me my love
I can't help but plead for your return, as I still have feelings for you
Won't you come back to me
I implore you to come back to me
Come back to me my love
I want nothing more than to be with you again
