Bring It Back

My stab at a kind-of-campy show tune.

Bring It Back
 
 You had somethin’ that I needed,
 nothin’, that could be repeated,
 something that made me completely
 fall in love with you.
 
 You had something like no other,
 something like no other lover,
 something special, undercover,
 seemed so sweet to me.
 
 You were always on my mind.
 When you’re gone, just killing time.
 Waiting for another kiss from you.
 Yes it’s true, I was waiting,
 waiting here, but,
 
 you had somethin’ else to do,
 someone else who needed you.
 How could I believe it true,
 that you’d come back to me?
 
 You were always on my mind,
 when you’re gone, just killing time,
 waiting for another kiss from you.
 Yes it’s true, now, I was waiting,
 waiting here, now,
 
 I have somethin’ that I’ll give you,
 a proposition, you can review,
 my love, my life, my vow to keep you,
 to bring you back to me.

 You had somethin’ that I needed (something undercover)
 something that made me complete (somethin’ like no other lover)
 nothin’ that could be repeated, no…
 
 You know we should be together.
 I need your lovin’ more than ever.
 Now bring it back to me!
