Baby, what are you doin‘ with your life
Don‘t you realize it‘s a complete mess
Have you forgotten the meaning of dreaming
That your life would be a success ...
Now, get yourself together
You won‘t live forever
It‘s never too late to try –
For your angels are waitin’
To help pull you thru
‘N your star in a troubled sky, yeah
It was a sad ‘n lonely feeling
The day you walked away
I couldn’t move
My heart stood still I thought it would stop forever ‘til
A new love came along one day
‘N gave my spirit flight
The weight was lifted
The clouds had shifted
‘N stars reappeared in the night...cos‘
Baby, isn’t it sad
Baby, isn’t it confusing
That people have to break-up to make-up
Oh, it’s all so amusing
Why, oh why, can’t people stay together
‘N follow the road that leads to forever
Til’ the road comes to an end
Instead, they break-up to make-up
And wind up as best friends
Baby, that’s like us…
It seems the sun is settin’ on our dreams
It seems the rain’s about to fall
It seems that somethin’ has come between
The dreams we shared ‘n all those that stalled
But I am not gonna give in so easily
I’m not gonna take this lyin’ down
Cos’ I know you love me
‘N I love you too
So, this is my advice to you…
Some people see wealth
As the greatest thing on earth –
‘N others say health
Is a sign of true wealth
For whatever that’s worth…
But, not me
That’s not me at all
Cos’ I see great wealth in watchin’ a silent star fall
Thru a crowded sky
Into your inquisitive eye
‘N then light your imagination about the world that rushes by
Baby, I know you’re feelin’ down
Lonely ‘n depressed
You think the world has it in for you
You’re restless ‘n anxious the whole night thru
But, calm down
The tide will turn
But don’t wait for that day to come –
Just get yourself together
Things can only get better
Bury your sadness in the settin’ sun, ‘n
The night is still
The night is silent
‘Cept for just a little light rain –
It could be the calm before the stormy weather
See, there’s usually silence before the violence
Whenever we get together…
Lately, baby, we can’t seem to get along
Our love’s as weak as it once was strong
Baby, I know it‘s crazy
Baby, I know it‘s true
When love walks thru your door
And stands right next to you
Should you turn ‘n walk away
Or close your eyes til it ignores you
Or should you let it in
Baby, if you just open your heart
You‘ll never be lonely again – so, baby
