Clarke Duke Project Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The sunday evenings, the fun we use to share
Looking through the memories in my mind
Since I've laughed and cried and thought it over
Now I realize that it's never over only set aside
chorus:
Oh it's you sweet baby
Sweet baby
Only hopin' it's not too late to try again
It's you sweet baby
Ever always been captured by your smile, sweet baby
I will always be right there by your side
Right by your side
2. Lyin' here alone I'm dreamin'
My mind keeps wanderin' why
My thoughts are only you
Wanderin' through the memories in myy mind
How could love so real have gone so empty
I just keep wanderin' why
Well I ever find the love we share
3. Oh it's you sweet baby
Though we've had such a long hard road to climb, sweet baby
Only hopin' it's not too late to try again
It's you, sweet baby
Won't you try and believe in what I say, sweet baby
I will always be right there by your sided, right by your side
(chorus)

I cannot help but contemplate about why things ended the way they did
My thoughts are only you
There is no one occupying my thoughts but you
How could love so real have gone so empty
I struggle to understand how such a meaningful love could fade away
Won't you try and believe in what I say, sweet baby
Please trust me and give us a chance to make things right

Looking through the memories in my mind
Since I've laughed and cried and thought it over
Now I realize that it's never over, it's only set aside
Oh it's you, sweet baby
I will never be free from your embrace, sweet baby
Only hoping it's not too late to try again
It's you, sweet baby
Ever lost and captured by your smile, sweet baby
I will always be right there by your side
Right by your side
Lying here alone I'm dreaming
My mind keeps wandering, my thoughts are only you
Looking through the memories in my mind
How could love so real have turned so empty
I just keep wondering why
Will I ever find the love we shared together, you and I
Girl it's you, sweet baby
Though we had such a long hard road to climb, sweet baby
Only hoping it's not too late to try again
It's you, sweet baby
Won't you try belivin what i say, sweet baby
I will always be right there by your side
Right by your side

When I think about your loving
The Sunday evenings
The fun we use to share
Looking through the
Memories in my mind
Since I've laughed and cried
And thought it over
Now I realize
That it's never over
Only set aside
[Chorus]
Oh, it's you, sweet baby
I will never be free
From your embrace, sweet baby
Only hoping it's not
Too late to try again
It's you, sweet baby
Ever always been captured
By your smile, sweet baby
I will always be right
There by your side
Right by your side
[Verse 2]
Lying here alone, I'm dreaming
My mind keeps wanderin
My thoughts are only you
Wandering through the
Memories in my mind
How could love so real
Have gone so empty
I just keep wondering why
Will I ever find the love
We shared together, you and I

One of the really underappreciated duos of this generation. Two terrific musicians, one soulful, groovy song.
@MsOramsey
That’s so true 😢
@javavoom
A classic. Whether you heard it 38 years ago, today, or 38 year in the future, it's a classic. So beautiful.

Facts
@zumzaide5100
couldn't agree more
@bobbyyoung4243
Yes sirrrrrrrrr.
@viniciusmagnoni6492
Impossible to have heard it 38 years ago, the song is only 32 years old.
@claudio5804
@@viniciusmagnoni6492 the song was released in 1981. I saw them sing this live in 1982, Philippine International Convention Center, Manila, Philippines. So I stand corrected, 38 years ago when I commented to this in 2019.
