Someone's Baby Now

(album: Augustana - 2011)

Face the day and face the night
Hold you close and hold you tight
Did I keep you satisfied or did I let you down?

Bullet trains and aeroplanes
Blowing from the south
Are you someone's baby now

Fields of green and oceans blue
Sweeter things and bitter fruits
Only make me think of you
Yeah, waiting in the sky

Hurricanes and fire flames
Never brought you down
Are you someone's baby now

When you look in, in the mirror
You see my shadows on the wall
And now you see things, a little clearer
You're feeling two foot tall

Heaven, hell and in between
Yellow roses at your feet
Far from all the city streets
Shattering the night

Golden years will slip away
Buried in the ground
Come on and hold yourself up to the light
And do not make a sound
You know your mamma taught you what to love,
But she never taught you how
Are you somebody's baby now

And when you look in, in the mirror
You see my shadows on the wall
But can you hear me, when I need you near me
I'm someone's baby now

You can't
Can't let go
No, when you can't
Can't let go
