Glenn Jones - "Baby Come Home"

I am a sucker for any song where a man does some serious begging. That's for real! Glenn Jones said that he wants her back and he needs her back, so baby please come home!! Glenn is a crossover R&B/southern soul artist and I first heard of him with his hits, "Here I Go Again" and "Show Me." Mainstream radio didn't play "Baby Come Home" but the southern soul stations picked it up and I am so glad they did. In this song, he lost his girl but he's trying like crazy to get her back. Sit back and enjoy.

Guess she’s out of my life
But I can’t get her out of my mind
There’s no use in trying, just a waste of time
So that I go out in the streets
And to all of the strangers I meet
When they smile at me
I can’t help but think of how it used to be

Chorus
But when the lights are down
And you‘re not around
I want you back, I need you back
So baby come home
Where your heart belongs to me
Home is where you know you have a family
So baby come home
Don’t waste no more precious time
One more night without you I might lose my mind

Can’t we both just sit down together, baby
And try to work things out
You know there’s no need for us to scream and shout
I’ll give you my shoulder to lay your head
I’ll even bring you breakfast in bed
Then will you forget the foolish things I said

Chorus

There’s no use in crying because

That won’t bring your loving arms back to me again

Cause each day a part of me is dying

I want you back, I need you back

So baby come home

Where your heart belongs to me

Home is where you know you have a family

Will you come home

One more night without you I might lose my mind
