To Baby

(álbum: Thing Of The Past - 2008)

You gave me all the love that's necessary
When two people try to find themselves
Love beyond all common sense
Based on some sweet permanence
With only one
And baby I thought I needed you
In a changing world
Baby I thought I needed you
Wanting some to give away
Important things I had to say
For many days
Suddenly you came along
Helped me share my perfect song
In perfect ways
And baby I thought I needed you
In a changing world
I thought I needed you
The closer that we drew together
Made our love seem like forever
Naturally
And then I heard you sing the song
That I was singing all along
And failed to see
Baby
The thing that I most fear
In a changing world:
I saw you disappear
Empty now and silently I face your struggle to be free
To be on your own
To grow so very carefully
And suffer necessarily
For what I've done
To baby who wants to know the thing
In a changing world
To baby who's learning how to sing
In a changing world
To baby who's learning how to sing
