Baby is the only name I've called her Ever since the day she came my way And told me she was lonely When I asked her why baby cried She told me that no boy ever held her hand Sixteen and she couldn't understand Why no one paid attention, yeah When I held her hand baby cried Then she told me that no boy ever held her tight
Only the ones in her dreams at night Then rushing she started running, yeah I caught her, I held her tight, baby cried And as I held her tenderly The strangest feeling came over me And it told me I too was lonely Then I kissed her lips, baby cried And I cried, yeah, baby cried And I cried, baby cried
