Baby and a Babe Baby and a Babe Got carried away by the steep route of competitive love They got stuck in repetition by the loop of their conformity code They keep reducing their lines, his own cue and intuition But without no guidance but suspicion Baby and a Babe Not seen leaning heads together in the back of a cabriolet Baby and a Babe No kissing in a public or in private or elsewhere Baby and a Babe Might be in love or in limbo Might be in need of somebody to play Baby and a Babe They fell over each other by giving birth to two babies They got saved by one another through promises and maybes They keep performing their risk, you as the risk was pure routine But without a plan when both are sinking Baby and a Babe Not seen leaning across the table laughing heartily in any cafe Baby and a Babe No sharing mental secrets in a public or in private or elsewhere Baby and a Babe Might be dishonest or distant Might be in need of someone to begin Now Babe belongs to let go of their past Her Babe drags it with him as the reason why skies are overcast Baby says the wisest thing to everyone but him Her Babe always stays too short a while to hear a single thing that matters Baby and a Babe They're like two walls that need the other to stand but like walls they don't talk Baby and a Babe They're both too proud or scared or too stubborn to crack up and pack up and walk Baby and a Babe Might feel involved or invaded Might wait around to be asked the last dance Might be saving up some nerve to ask one more chance Baby and a Babe
