Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I don't say this now, I will surely break
As I'm leaving the one I want to take
Forgive the urgency
But hurry up and wait
My heart has started to separate
[Verse 2]
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
I'll look after you
[Verse 3]
There now, steady love
So few come and don't go
Will you, won't you
Be the one I'll always know
When I'm losing my control
The city spins around
You're the only one who knows
You slow it down
[Verse 4]
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
Said I'll look after you
And I'll look after you
[Verse 5]
If ever there was a doubt
My love, she leans into me
This most assuredly counts
She says most assuredly
[Verse 6]
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
I'll look after you
After you
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 7]
It's always half and never whole
As you've begun to feel like home, yeah
What's mine is yours to leave or take
What's mine is yours to make your own
[Verse 8]
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 9]
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Be my baby
Oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
