Baby
Clean Bandit Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sé que te gusto a ti todavía
Tres, dos, uno

Standing here in an empty room
I saw you there and my blood ran cold
Take me back to that long September
Don't know how I ever let you go
I was young, didn't know 'bout love
You were wild, couldn't get enough
Gave my heart to another lover
Don't know how I ever let you go

Find me, in another place and time
If only, if only you were mine
But I'm already someone else's baby
Guess I had my last chance
And now this is our last dance
You fell through the cracks in my hands
Hard to say it's over
But I'm already someone else's (C'mon)

Baby, ahh
Baby, ahh
Baby, ahh
I'm already someone else's

All caught up in the way we were
I feel your hands getting close to mine
Don't say the words that I love to hear
The beat goes on and I close my eyes

I was young, didn't know 'bout love
You were wild, couldn't get enough
Let's leave things the way they were
You'll stay with me like a lullaby

Ey, sé que te gusto a ti todavía por mucho que digas
Además puedo ver en tus ojos
Que no sólo quieres quedar como amigos
Tienes mi corazón, eres mi obsesión
Soy tuyo pa' siempre

Guess I had my last chance
And now this is our last dance
You fell through the cracks in my hands
Tell myself be stronger
My heart's like a rubber band
And it's such a shame
You'll always be the one who got away
We both know that deep down you feel the same
Hard to say it's over
But I'm already someone else's (C'mon)

Baby, ahh (Eso no, eso no)
Baby, ahh (Mereces mejor)
Baby, ahh (Y a tu calor)
I'm already someone else's

Wish I met you at another place and time
If only, if only you were mine
This love story ends for you and I
'Cause I'm already someone else's
Baby, ahh (Contigo otra vez)
Baby, ahh (Mereces mucho mejor, mucho mejor)
Baby, ahh (Lo que tienes con ella, no es amor)
I'm already someone else's

Baby, ahh (Cada noche más te extraño, cada día sin ti me hace daño)
Baby, ahh (Sabes que mereces mejor, lo que sientes por ella no es amor)




Baby, ahh (Por mucho que digas somos más que amigos)
I'm already someone else's (Y el tiempo se acaba en cuatro, tres, dos, uno)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Clean Bandit’s “Baby” are about a past love that still lingers in the present. The song tells the story of the singer who had a love affair in the past and let that person go. Now, standing in an empty room, the singer is overwhelmed with memories of the past relationship, wishing they could go back in time and not let the person go. The singer describes their young self as not knowing about love, while the other person was wild and couldn’t get enough. The singer gave their heart to another lover, but now regrets their decision.


The lyrics also suggest that the singer has moved on, and is already in another relationship, but the past love still holds a special place in their heart. The singer and the past lover share a connection that is beyond just friends, and the lyrics suggest that the past lover still has feelings for the singer too. However, the singer acknowledges that they are already someone else’s and this is our “last dance”. They wish they could be with the past love, but that is not possible as they are now with someone else.


Overall, "Baby" is a heart-wrenching song about regret, love, and living with the memories. It captures the emotions of those who understand the pain of letting go of someone they loved.


Line by Line Meaning

Sé que te gusto a ti todavía
I know you still like me


Standing here in an empty room
I'm alone and feeling sad


I saw you there and my blood ran cold
Your sudden appearance scared me


Take me back to that long September
I want to go back in time to a happier moment


Don't know how I ever let you go
I regret ending our relationship


I was young, didn't know 'bout love
I was naïve and inexperienced in relationships


You were wild, couldn't get enough
You were passionate and always wanted more


Gave my heart to another lover
I fell in love with someone else


Find me, in another place and time
I wish we could meet again in a different time and circumstances


If only, if only you were mine
If only you were my significant other


But I'm already someone else's baby
But I am already in a committed relationship


Guess I had my last chance
I realize that I missed my chance with you


And now this is our last dance
This is our last opportunity to be together


You fell through the cracks in my hands
I lost you due to my mistakes


Hard to say it's over
It's difficult to admit that our relationship is finished


All caught up in the way we were
I can't stop thinking about the past and our relationship


I feel your hands getting close to mine
I sense your physical presence and longing


Don't say the words that I love to hear
I don't want to hear you express your love for me


The beat goes on and I close my eyes
The music continues and I try to forget about you


Let's leave things the way they were
Let's not change the past and remember our relationship as it was


You'll stay with me like a lullaby
I will always remember you through the music we shared


Ey, sé que te gusto a ti todavía por mucho que digas
Hey, I know you still like me regardless of what you say


Además puedo ver en tus ojos
I can see in your eyes


Que no sólo quieres quedar como amigos
That you don't just want to be friends


Tienes mi corazón, eres mi obsesión
You have my heart, you are my obsession


Soy tuyo pa' siempre
I am forever yours


Tell myself be stronger
I try to convince myself to be stronger


My heart's like a rubber band
My heart is stretched and strained


And it's such a shame
It's disappointing


You'll always be the one who got away
You will always be the missed opportunity


We both know that deep down you feel the same
We both know that you share my feelings


Wish I met you at another place and time
I wish we had met in another time and another place


This love story ends for you and I
This love story is finished for us


'Cause I'm already someone else's
Because I'm already in a committed relationship


Cada noche más te extraño, cada día sin ti me hace daño
Every night I miss you more, every day without you hurts me


Sabes que mereces mejor, lo que sientes por ella no es amor
You know you deserve someone better, what you feel for her is not love


Por mucho que digas somos más que amigos
No matter what you say, we are more than friends


Y el tiempo se acaba en cuatro, tres, dos, uno
And time runs out in four, three, two, one
