Lyrics
WHERE DID THAT BABY GO
(Jon D'Agostino) Shorehitsmusic@aol.com
She used to tell me that she loves me
She used to want to hold my hand
She used to wake me up on Sunday morning
And call me her best friend
She used to sneak into my bed at night
Too scared to sleep alone
She used to be part of my life
Now tell me where, did that baby go?
She's got my eyes, her momma's curls
Got my wrapped around her finger
Yeah she's daddy's little girl
But something changed, something strange
Now I look at her and see, this beauty at sixteen
And I need to know, Where did that baby go?
We used to walk the beach for miles
Picking seashells from the sand
One day I'll walk her down the aisle,
And watch her stand beside that man
Though I'll surrender to their love,
From behind a champagne toast,
I'll say "The best is yet to come"
But think Where, did that baby go?
REPEAT CHORUS
But something changed, along the way
A woman smiled at me, when I handed her those keys
And I need to know, Where, did that baby go?
BRIDGE
Well the last thing I remember, she was sitting on my knee
And I was singing her a lullaby, and watched her fall asleep
If I could turn the hands of time back to the day when she was born
I would work a little less, and be home a little more
REPEAT CHORUS
And something changed, Something great
She reached out for my hand
I think she finally understands
I love her so------------.
But where, did that baby go?
