Lyrics
Abandoned mansions in the sun,
Creaky shelters standing for no one,
Refuges of sorts, and in short,
The ghosts linger on in their secret fortresses.
Like broken hearts that never really mend,
Like swerving, curving roads that never end,
Its like a part of your heart, you never meant to vend,
Like pieces of your soul, you never meant to send!
Lost Babies, through and through,
Lost Babies, like me, and you.
{Lost babies, lost babies} chorus
Will we ever really know?
[2nd part I hope it shows sometime for us]
Will we ever really care?
[2nd part I dont mean to make a fuss]
Will our love ever show?
[2nd part I hope it shows sometime for us]
All the love that, we could share?
All that, love, just lying there, basking in the sun.
Oh! I love you honey, you are the one!
[2nd part I just need your love]
And though I am a lost baby in a lost world,
I do, I do, I do, I love you girl!
Lost Babies Lost Babies {with chorus to end}
Lost Babies
Lost Babies Lost Babies
Lost Babies I love you girl
Lost Babies
Lost Babies (spoken)
Lost Babies Lost Babies
Lost Babies
Lost Babies Lost Babies
Lost Babies I love you girl
Lost Babies
