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
Blow in from the south
Well, you're 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
Well, you're someone's baby now
When you're looking 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
Shatter in 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 mama taught you
What to love
But she never taught you how
Well, you're somebody's baby now
Yeah and when you're looking in the mirror
You see my shadows on the wall
But can you hear me, babe?
I need you near me, I'm someone's baby now
Oh yeah
You can't, can't let go
You know when you can't, can't let go, no
