Babe Lyrics
I come to your door to see you again,
But where you once stood was an old man instead
I asked where you'd be, he said "she's moved, on you see
All I have is a number you'd better ask her not me"
So I picked up the phone and dialled your number
Not sure to put it down or speak
Then I voice I once knew answered in a sweet voice
She said hello then paused before I began to speak
Babe I'm here again, I tell you I'm here again
Where have you been?
Babe, I'm back again, I tell you I'm back again
Where have you been?
You held your voice well, there were tears I could tell
But where were you now? Was you gonna tell me in time?
Just give me a town and I'll be straight down
Got so much to tell you about where I have been
As I walk down your road, can't wait to be near you
Can't keep the feeling in inside
As I stand at your door you answered in a sweet voice
You said hello then pause before I begin to speak
Babe I'm here again, I tell you I'm here again
Where have you been?
Babe, I'm back again, I tell you I'm back again
Where have you been?
Just as I looked away, I saw a face behind you
A little boy stood at your door
And as I looked again I saw his face was shining
He had my eyes, he had my smile
Babe I'm here again, I tell you I'm here again
Where have you been?
Babe, I'm back again, I tell you I'm back again
Where have you been?

The song evokes deep sorrow and frustration, highlighting the painful realization that the person he loved has become someone entirely new, while simultaneously grappling with the bittersweet beauty of a legacy carried on through their offspring.
