I lost my heart

A long time ago

You make me feel

Like no one had before

Boy you make me love you

Then you walked out the door

See, I will not rest

Until you say I'm forever yours



And boy I won't stop at nothing

I won't give you up and

You've gotta feel something I know

I will not love again

Until you come back

Come back to my arms

'til you come back to me baby

Until you come back (to me)



Don't care how long

It's not important to me

Don't care how far

Love's never too far for me

I just might be crazy

When it comes to my heart

But I cannot rest

Until the day we're no longer apart



Hook



Nobody plays with my heart

U can't walk away from it all

U can run but your heart cannot hide

Cause it knows you belong in my life



Hook



Till you come back to me baby

Come on home, come home

To me

Until You Come Back

Babyface's 'Until You Come Back' stands as a quintessential example of his signature mid-1980s R&B and soul sound. Recorded during the height of his solo career, the track exemplifies his mastery of lush production, intricate harmonies, and emotive vocal delivery. The song reflects the era's focus on romantic longing and the complexities of waiting for a lover, themes that were central to Babyface's discography and helped define the smooth, polished aesthetic of contemporary soul music. As a standalone recording, it showcases his ability to craft atmospheric tracks that blend melodic sophistication with deep emotional resonance, cementing his status as a leading figure in the genre.
