Hey Baby
Must Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I would never tell you what to do
I would never tell you how to be
You are yours be yourself it's the only way
I'm standing by your side I'm not standing in your way
Do you hear me? do you want to?
Is there something in-between the lines here?

Hey baby

Accept this rose as a symbol of what's to come
The petals are gentle the thorns cause your blood to run
But I don't want anything to be withheld
And if we open ourselves we may reach a place that's free

It won't always be plain sailing
I don't know anything that is

Hey baby

And I believe in this life in the end we are all alone
So dear companion I'm not going to live it numb
And if I'm pushing you it's so the creatures inside don't sleep
'cause love is fire and fire is life and life is beautifully exploded

I don't believe in conditional
It's anathema and it makes no sense to me
I can tell you everything will be okay
And that I'm standing by your side even when I'm miles away

Do you hear me? do you want to?
It won't always be plain sailing
You know I know you know
So let us wake at night from gentle sleep to anoint this darkness
