Jeanette Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh baby, baby, take care of my heart

Oh baby I never knew it's you I could love
Now the space in my heart's not enough
Oh honey touching your tender lips is insane
My resistance completely in vain

Oh it feels so great
T'was only just one date

Oh baby, baby, take care of my heart all the way
I promise we'll be together to stay
Oh baby, baby take care of my soul from the start
We never ever should be a-apart

Oh baby I'm dreamin' of lying now in your arms
I would certainly feel safe and warm
And you will be the only lover for me
For the other right out there to see

Oh baby, you won my love
T'was sent from high above

Oh baby, baby take care of my heart all the way

Oh baby, baby, take care of my heart all the way
I promise we'll be together to stay
Oh baby, baby take care of my soul from the start
We never ever should be a-apart

Oh baby, baby, take care of my heart

Oh baby, baby, take care of my heart all the way
I promise we'll be together to stay
Oh baby, baby take care of my soul from the start
We never ever should be a-apart

Oh baby, oh baby, I wanna be with you
Oh baby, oh baby, take me away

Oh baby, baby, take care of my heart

Oh baby, baby, take care of my heart all the way
I promise we'll be together to stay




Oh baby, baby take care of my soul from the start
We never ever should be a-apart
