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
Then a voice I once knew
Answered in a sweet voice she said "Hello"
Then paused before I began to speak

Babe, I'm here again, I tell you I'm here again
Where have you been?
Babe, I'm back again, I tell you I'm back again
Where have you been?

You held your voice well, there were tears I could tell
But where wee 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, can't wait to be near you
I can't keep the feeling in inside
As I stand at your door
You answer in a sweet voice you say "Hello"
Then pause before I begin to speak

Babe, I'm here again, I tell you I'm here again
Where have you been?
Babe, I'm back again, I tell you I'm back again
Where have you been?

As I looked away I saw a face behind you
A little boy stood at your door
And as I looked again I saw his face was shining
He had my eyes, he had my smile

Babe, I'm back again, I tell you I'm back again
I'll beneath of you
Babe, please take me back, take me back
Back home again
Babe, please hold me close, hold me close
Like you used to do
Babe, just me and you, you and me
