Baby
You've been so distant from me lately
And lately
Don't even wanna call you baby
Saw us getting older (older)
Burning toast in the toaster
My ambitions were too high
Waiting up for you upstairs (upstairs)
Why you act like I'm not there?
Baby, right now it feels like
It feels like you don't care
Why don't you recognize I'm so rare?
Always there
You don't do the same for me
That's not fair
I don't have it all
I'm not claiming to
But I know that I'm special (so special), yeah
And I bet there's somebody else out there
To tell me I'm rare
To make me feel rare
Baby
Don't make me count up
All the reasons to stay with you
No reason
Why you and I are not succeeding?
Uh uh, mm, uh uh
Saw us getting older
Burning toast in the toaster
My ambitions were too high (too high)
Waiting up for you upstairs (upstairs)
Why you act like I'm not there? (Oh)
Baby, right now it feels like (what?)
It feels like you don't care
Why don't you recognize I'm so rare?
Always there
You don't do the same for me
That's not fair
I don't have it all
I'm not claiming to
But I know that I'm special (so special), yeah
And I bet there's somebody else out there
To tell me I'm rare
To make me feel rare (yeah, yeah)
I'm not gonna beg for you
Not gonna let you make me cry (ah, nah nah, make me cry)
Not getting enough from you (no-oh)
Didn't you know I'm hard to find? (Find, hard to find)
Saw us getting older
Burning toast in the toaster
My ambitions were too high (too high)
Waiting up for you upstairs
Why you act like I'm not there?
Baby, right now it feels like
It feels like you don't care (you don't care)
Why don't you recognize I'm so rare? (So rare)
I'm always there
You don't do the same for me, that's (that's) not (not) fair
I don't have it all (I don't have it all)
I'm not claiming to (I'm not claiming to)
But I know that I'm special (so special), yeah
And I'll bet there's somebody else out there
To tell me I'm rare
To make me feel rare (ooh, yeah)
Ah, ah (so rare)
Rare
Ah, ah
