Anybody Seen My Baby?

(album: Bridges To Babylon - 1997)

She confessed her love to me
Then she vanished on the breeze
Trying to hold on to that was just impossible

She was more than beautiful
Closer to ethereal
With a kind of down-to-earth flavor

Close my eyes
It's three in the afternoon
Then I I realize
That she's really gone for good

Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
Love has gone and made me blind
I've looked but I just can't find
She has gotten lost in the crowd

I was flipping magazines
In that place on Mercer Street
When I thought I spotted her

Getting on a motor bike
Looking rather lady like
Didn't she just give me a wave?

Salty tears
It's three in the afternoon
Has she disappeared
Is she really gone for good

Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
If I just close my eyes
I reach out and touch the prize
Anybody seen her around

Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
If I just close my eyes
I reach out reach out and touch the prize
Anybody seen her around

Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
Lost, lost and never found
I must have I must have called her a thousand times
Sometimes I just think she's just in my imagination

Lost in the crowd
