I Cant Sleep Baby Remix
R. Kelly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where did it go, my baby, where did it go, my darling
Tell me how to get you back in my heart again

Girl I must have been crazy, to say that it was over
I had to be a fool, to yell out we were through
And now I'm all lonely and feeling down and out, baby
When I never meant for this to end
It was so, so crazy of me
Sometimes a man can say things that he really don't mean
Well I'm sorry baby, bring your lovin' back to me

I can't sleep babe, I can't think babe
I can't live babe, without you in my life
I can't go on babe, this is my song baby
Don't want to do nothin' if I go away baby
And I can't do nothin' if you're not around, baby

Can we meet somewhere and talk about it
Oh, baby, can we work it out
I'm not going to let you go, my baby
Before I let you know that I

I can't sleep babe no way, I can't think babe
I can't live babe, without you in my life
Don't want to go on babe, this is my song baby
I Don't want to do nothin' if I...I can't be with you, baby
I can't sleep babe, I can't sleep, I can't think babe
I don't think that I can ever live...

Just the thought of you being gone
Keeps me up all night long, oh-oh

I don't think that I could ever live
I can't live babe, there's just no way that I...




Oh, oh, oh, oh...babe
Can't gone on, this is my song
