Lyrics
I see you scintillating on the other side
I reach out for you with swallowed pride
Then you come to me, let your hair fall down
And then you look at me, look to me and say
Why can't you be my baby
Not just mine tonight
Why can't you be my baby
And face the uphill fight
Let's make it right
And when the lights go down and all is said and done
Sheltered from the crowd No one to judge
Two lives alone and worlds apart
Yet you look at me, look to me and say
Why can't you be my baby
Not just mine tonight
Why can't you be my baby
And face the uphill fight
Let's make it right
Why does love always have to suffer from fear
I wake up in your arms, you try to hide your tears
Sunlight fills the room and cuts right to the fear
Now I see you clearly for who you are
And I look pull you close, whisper in your ear
Why can't you be my baby
Not just mine tonight
Why can't you be my baby
And face the uphill fight
Let's make it right
If not tonight
We'll win this fight
