George Duke
’Til You Come Back to Me
[Verse 1]
I can only blame myself
To think that someone else could ever take your place
I must have been out of my head to turn away, mhm
I said I needed time and space
I thought the grass was greener on the other side
You never miss your water 'til your well runs dry, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
I wrote you letters, you sent them back
I'm gonna keep on trying, in my heart I still believe
I'll take my chances, 'cause I can wait
I promise that's what I'll do 'til you come back to me
Come on, baby, to me

[Verse 2]
Tried to convince myself
The love we shared was over and a thing of the past
We'd grown apart and lost the feeling that we once shared, hey
Just didn't realize
How much I hurt you when I chose to say goodbye
I had it all but I just wasn't satisfied, oh, oh, mmm

[Chorus]
I wrote you letters, you sent them back
I'm gonna keep on trying, in my heart I still believe
I'll take my chances, 'cause I can wait
I promise that's what I'll do 'til you come back to me
Come on home, baby
[Bridge]
'Cause there's no one in this world
Who's gonna love you like I do
I'll keep on wishing 'til you come back
I won't give up 'til you're right here with me

[Chorus]
Oh, I wrote you letters, you sent them back
(You sent them back)
I keep on trying, in my heart I still believe
I'll take my chances 'cause I can wait
I promise that's what I'll do 'til you come back to me

[Outro]
(You sent them back)
I'll keep writing, baby
I'll take my chances 'cause I can wait
('Cause I can wait)
I promise that's what I'll do 'til you
('Til you come back to me, back to me)
You, you come back to me, baby
(Back to me, 'til you come back to me
Back to me, 'til you come back to me)
Come on (Back to me), back to me
('Til you come back to me)
I don't care, I'll go nowhere, I'll be right here
(Back to me) 'Til you come back to me
('Til you come back to me, back to me)
('Til you come back to me) Mhm (Back to me)
I believe you'll come back to me (Back), mhm
Come on back to me (Come back to me, yeah)
(Come back) Oh (Come on back)
Yes, come back to me, I was wrong
(Back, come on back, baby, back to me)
Oh, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, baby
Come back to me
I'll watch and wait for you
'Til you come back to me, you come back, baby
I believe you're coming back, you're coming back
You're coming back to me
