Lyrics
Babe
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I come to your door to see you again, but
Where you once stood was an old man instead
I asked where you'd be
He said: She's moved on you see
All I have is a number
You'd better ask her not me
So I picked up the phone
And dialled your number
Not sure to put it down or speak
The a voice I once knew answered in a sweet voice
She said hello and then paused
Before I began to speak
Babe (babe)
I'm here again (I'm here again)
I tell you I'm here again (babe)
Where have you been (where have you been)
Babe (babe)
I'm back again
I tell you I'm back again (babe)
Where have you been
You held your voice well
There were tears I could tell
But where were you now
Was you gonna tell me in time
Just give me a town
And I'll be straight down
I've got so much to tell you
About where I have been
As I walk down your road
I can't wait to be near you
(I) I can't keep (I) the feeling inside
(I can't keep it inside)
As I stand at your door
You answer in a sweet voice
You say hello then pause
Before I begin to speak
Babe (babe)
I'm here again (I'm here again)
I tell you I'm here again (babe)
Where have you been (where have you been)
Babe (babe)
I'm back again
I tell you I'm back again (babe)
Where have you been
As you looked away
I saw a face behind you
A little boy stood at your door
(Boy stood at your door)
And when I looked again
I saw his face
Was shining
He had my eyes (my eyes)
He had my smile (my smile)
Babe (babe) I'm back again (I'm here again)
I tell you I'm back again (babe)
I'll be here for you
(Where have you been)
Babe (babe) please take me back (I'm back again)
Take me back (babe)
Back home again
Babe (babe) please hold me close (I'm here again)
Hold me close (babe)
Like you used to do (where have you been)
Babe (babe) just me and you (I'm back again)
You and me (babe)
