Martha Reeves & The Vandellas
My Baby Won’t Come Back
[Intro]
I can't find my baby anywhere...
[Verse 1]
I've called, and called
And cried, and cried
And I've moped, yes, I've moped
And sighed, oh, how I've sighed
My baby, with his wonderful charm
(My baby) My baby won't come back
[Verse 2]
And I've asked, and asked,
I can't sleep a wink
I worry, yes, I worry
I just can't even think
My baby, with his wonderful arms
(My baby) My baby won't come back to my arms
[Verse 3]
(Can't find my baby anywhere)
Ohh, he won't come back to my arms
Oh, how, I miss his arms
The arms that held me so tightly (So tightly)
And, ohh
I miss his caresses, that thrill me nightly
I'm tellin' you,
I've really been fooled
[Verse 4]
If you see my baby,
Would you tell him for me?
That I've got a yearnin'
I yearn for him desparately
My baby, with his wonderful charm,
(My baby) My baby won't come back to my arms
[Verse 5]
(Can't find my baby...)
Oh, I've been callin', and callin'
Oh, my baby, with his wonderful charms,
My baby just won't come back to me
(I can't find my baby anywhere)
Oh, and I've called, and called
(Can't find my baby anywhere)
And cried, and cried
(Can't find my baby anywhere)
I've wrote sixteen letters, crying – I've almost died
(Can't find my baby anywhere)
Oh, my baby won't come back to me, ohh...
