Come Back

Luther Vandross and David Gamson

(album: ANY LOVE - 1988)





My heart and soul

And body too

Keep missin' you

What am I to do

The day's so long

And the night's so rough

;Cause it seems like I

Can't forget your love

It feels just like

I'm gonna fall apart

And I don't know how

I can make it now ...so



Chorus I:

Come back

You've been gone too long

You're on my mind

And it's hard to carry on 

Come back

You've been away too long

My heart is weak

From being strong



I thought my sad face

Would make you stay

And it took me out

When you left that day

I sit and stare

But no one's there

 In the room outside

That we used to share

When you're not here

It's a quiet place

It's a lonely house

Just an empty space ...you gotta



Chorus II:

Come back

You've been gone too long

You're all I need

And it's hard to carry on

Come back

You been away too long

My heart is weak

From being strong

Come back

You've been gone so long

I love you so

And I betcha I can show you

Come back

I got a love so strong

I'm missin' you, my baby

Ooh



Bridge:

I need you back now

You gotta come back, gotta come back

And I want you love

Please come back, please come back

I need you back right now

You gotta come back, gotta come back

And I want your love, my baby
