Lyrics
Nobody's Baby Now
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ive searched the holy books
I tried to unravel the mystery of jesus christ, the saviour
Ive read the poets and the analysts
Searched through the books on human behaviour
I travelled this world around
For an answer that refused to be found
I dont know why and I dont know how
But shes nobodys baby now
I loved her then and I guess I love her still
Hers is the face I see when a certain mood moves in
She lives in my blood and skin
Her wild feral stare, her dark hair
Her winter lips as cold as stone
Yeah, I was her man
But there are some things love wont allow
I held her hand but I dont hold it now
I dont know why and I dont know how
But shes nobodys baby now
This is her dress that I loved best
With the blue quilted violets across the breast
And these are my many letters
Torn to pieces by her long-fingered hand
I was her cruel-hearted man
And though Ive tried to lay her ghost down
Shes moving through me, even now
I dont know why and I dont know how
But shes nobodys baby now
Shes nobodys baby now
Nobodys baby now
Shes nobodys baby now
