lyrics

'My Darling Baby'

V1: I didn’t know I was searching for you
until I found what I had been looking for.
A strayed angel, lawless, unraveling my necessary evil.
There you stood eating cake from a bag,
Shooting down all advances, yeah you’re so downtown.
Said he’s a preacher, a skilled facilitator,
of uncommon sense, thirsty for inspiration.

Ch: (So) come on, come let me tell you.
‘Cos I know someone who loves you.
My darling baby, release the demons.
Don’t hold anything back now.

V2: So where’d you come from you said heaven or hell?
After we’d slept in and thrown the phones in the back.
Living like kings, got my lemonade girl,
An ashtray plant in the corner 8 feet high.
A fridge full of pizza, lots of hangover sex
—stuff that never happened, things that you will forget.
To look at your picture, know your inner child.
You’re a thousand fold the worth of anyone.

Ch: So, come on, come let me tell you.
‘Cos I know someone who loves you.
My darling baby, release the demons.
Don’t hold anything back now.

Darling baby, darling baby.
Now I know, yeah I know.
Hear the joyous singing of the stars of heaven.

So, come on. Yeah come on.
My Darling baby, darling baby.
Come on. Come on.
My Darling baby, darling baby.

V3: Didn’t know I was searching for you
until I found what I had been looking for.
