Baby Lyrics & Tabs by Lloyd Cole and the Commotions
Baby
guitar chords lyrics
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 call 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
I'm only lonely.
She said not to call
Said it would be best for all concerned
If I just all but disappear
But 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?"
Pay me no mind
I'm just 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
