[Verse 1:]
I know you're thinking
I've been better off without you by my side
But baby, this season
I don't want another cold rainy July

[Hook:]
You would think that I'd be better now
But I'm not
Cause I don't have you
You would think that I'd be better now
But I'm not
Cause I don't have you

[Chorus x2:]
Come back to the world
Come back to the world
Baby, back to my world

[Verse 2:]
And I still remember
The way you used to gently touch my face
And since last December
I've discovered that no one can take your place

[Repeat Hook:]

[Repeat Chorus:]

[Bridge:]
And when the nights get lonely
I think of what you told me
Saying that I was the one

La, do, day
La, do, doh
La, do, day
La, do, doh

Tell me you can feel it once again
I know that we can love
Like we did then

So, bring it on home

[Repeat Chorus:]

Tevin Campbell

Tevin Campbell is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter that got his career started with two big names in music—first working with Quincy Jones in 1989 on “Tomorrow (A Better You, Better Me)” from the album Back on the Block and then working with Prince on “Round and Round” from the Graffiti Bridge soundtrack in 1990.

His debut album T.E.V.I.N. was released on November 19, 1991 and features the #1 R&B hits “Tell Me What You Want Me To Do” and “Alone With You,” which helped the album go platinum and earn Tevin a Grammy nomination for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance. His next album I’m Ready was released on October 26, 1993 and featured the Babyface-produced hits “Can We Talk” and “I’m Ready.” This album went double platinum and led to three more Grammy nominations for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “Can We Talk,” Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “I’m Ready,” and Best R&B Album.

Tevin’s third album Back to the World was released on June 25, 1996 and he followed that up with the release of a self-titled album on February 23, 1999. He appeared in the Broadway musical Hairspray in 2005 and after some guest appearances on various shows throughout the years, he released the song “Safer on the Ground” in 2016.
