Spending all my nights, all my money going out on the town
Doing anything just to get you off of my mind
But when the morning comes, I'm right back where I started again
Trying to forget you is just a waste of time
Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you
All day long, wearing a mask of false bravado,
Trying to keep up the smile that hides a tear.
But as the sun goes down, I get that empty feeling again.
How I wish to God that you were here.
Baby come back, any kind of fool could see,
There was something in everything about you.
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me.
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you.
Now that I put it all together
Give me the chance to make you see
Have you used up all the love in your heart?
Nothing left for me -- ain't there nothing left for me?
Baby come back, any kind of fool could see,
There was something in everything about you.
Baby come back, listen, you can blame it all on me.
I was wrong, and I just can't live without you.
I was wrong, and I just can't live --
Baby come back, any kind of fool could see
There was something in everything about you
Baby come back, you can blame it all on me...
