VERSE 01: I loved you when you were the kid next door/At school I loved you better than before/I thought that I could never love you more/Till now dear somehow dear/I see you in your pretty party dress/You thrill me with your loveliness/It seems dear in all my dreams dear/You’re the one that I long to caress VERSE 02: You said that when we parted I’d forget/But you can see I’ve not forgotten yet/There isn’t one among the girls I’ve met/Like you dear that’s true dear/To find the Only Girl I’ve wander’d far/But I come back to where you are/You know it my eyes must show it/You were made to be my guiding star CHORUS: [You’re such a/You pretty] Baby won’t you let me call you Baby/Could you learn to love me maybe/The way that I’ve always loved you ever since you were a Baby/Though you’re now a grown up lady/Somehow I know that to me/You’ll always be just Baby | |
