thanks!

Answer:


I would translate it as "Kimi ga kitto modoru" - literally "You'll sure be coming back." "Baby" is kind of difficult to translate literally, and Japanese songs usually use "kimi" (an affectionate form of "you") to refer to a girlfriend. As for explaining it, I don't think that's necessary - Japanese lovers break up/make up too!
