Cccan't You See
Vicious Pink Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Last night, we both said things that we regret
Things that we didn't mean
Broke up, all that we ever had
You went, said you weren't coming back

Baby please, can't you see
Back in your arms is where I want to be
Baby please, answer me
Back in your arms is where I want to be

I know, things started going wrong
And yet, my loves goes on and on
I think, that we can make it work
Ignore, all of those things you've heard

Baby please, can't you see
Back in your arms is where I want to be
Baby please, answer me
Back in your arms is where I want to be

Baby please, can't you see
I think you know I want you here with me
Baby please, set me free
I'm calling you why don't you answer me

I'll make it up, to you somehow
I only wish that things could be the same
I'll make you feel, like you used to
Why don't you take me in your arms again

Baby please, can't you see
Back in your arms is where I want to be
Baby please, answer me
Back in your arms is where I want to be

I'll make it up, to you somehow
I only wish that things could be the same




I'll make you feel, like you used to
Why don't you take me in your arms again

The lyrics reveal a sense of desperation, as the person pleads with their partner to take them back, promising to make things right and restore their relationship to what it once was.


The chorus is the most poignant part of the song, with the repetition of the lines, "Baby please, can't you see / Back in your arms is where I want to be / Baby please, answer me / Back in your arms is where I want to be." These lines are a desperate plea for the partner to acknowledge the singer's feelings and take them back.

Can't you broke up
Quelques fois, on dit des choses que l'on regrette
On dit des mots qui ne sont pas vrais
Mais c'est la vie n'est-ce pas ?
Alors, qu'est-ce que je fais maintenant ?

Je ne peux, vous résister
Puisque je suis encore dans ses bras
Je suis ici pour toi seulement
Puisque je suis encore dans ses bras

Cccan't you see ? One two one two one

Je sais que quelques fois je dors
Je cherche dans les textes encore
Que faire ? Mais c'est la vie n'est-ce pas ?
Alors, qu'est-ce que je fais maintenant ?

Je ne peux, vous résister
Puisque je suis encore dans ses bras
Je suis ici contre ce monde
Puisque je suis encore dans ses bras

Cccan't you see ? One two one two one

Je ne peux, vous résister
Puisque je suis encore dans ses bras
Je suis ici contre ce monde
Puisque je suis encore dans ses bras

Cccan't you see ? One two one two one
