Baby Sözleri

wasting my time

a shadow on the riverbank

watching my reflection go to sea

wind in my hair

i could be most anywhere

but i do not care to know

not where i stand

baby, i`ve been lost without you

since i don`t have a place to call my home

oh, my sweet baby, must i empty my heart?

must i take what i can get and make it my own?

as long as i love my baby

i`m only lonely

she said not to call

said it would be best for all concerned

if i just all but disappear

she loves you best

and i love her nonetheless

so i just listen to the voice on the machine, singing

baby, i`ve been lost without you

since i don`t have a place to call my home

oh, my sweet baby, must i empty my heart?

must i take what i can get and call it my own?

as long as i love my baby

i`m only lonely

maybe one day she`ll call me up and say

"god damn you your baby`s crying

and i`m lonely, come home"

maybe i`ll find some guts someplace and drive up

and you`ll be there playing on the porch and she`ll

just say

"baby, where you been?"

and "ain`t your little man growing?"

a pain in my mind

a shadow on the riverbank

watching my reflection go to sea

baby, i`ve been lost without you

since i don`t have a place to call my home

oh, my sweet baby, must i empty my heart?

must i take what i can get and make it my home?

as long as i love my baby

i`m only lonely
