  • My sandpaper sigh engraves a line
    Into the rust of your tongue
    Girl, I could've been someone to you
    Would've painted the skies blue

    Baby blue
    If you knew
    Baby blue
    Baby blue
    Baby blue

    Edging closer, you swing my way
    Girl, I've got no chance and nothing to say
    Girl, but stay here for a little while

    Baby blue
    Baby blue
    Baby blue

    But if only you could see
    My shadow crossing your path
    It won't be the last, baby blue

    (You are my) baby
    (You are my baby)
    (I was your slave, can't you see?)
    (I was just playin' in the sea)

    Bobbin' on the problem
    On the problem, on the bobbin'
    She was falling, I was bawling
    My heart was stopping, she was throbbing
