BABY BABY
Robert and Johnny Lyrics

Baby, I need your lovin'
The singer is yearning for the love and affection of their significant other.

Although you're never near
The singer's significant other is not physically present, but their voice is still heard in the singer's mind.

Another day, 'nother night
The passage of time is marked by the singer's ongoing longing for their significant other.

I long to hold you tight
The artist desires physical intimacy and closeness with their significant other.

'Cause I'm so lonely
The artist is experiencing a deep sense of loneliness and isolation without their significant other by their side.

Got to have all your lovin'
The singer feels a strong sense of urgency and desperation to receive their significant other's love and affection.

Some say it's a sign of weakness
The singer acknowledges that some may view their vulnerability and need for love as a weakness.

For a man to beg
The artist specifically references men begging for love, suggesting that societal expectations dictate that men should not express their emotional needs in such a way.

Then weak I'd rather be
Despite these expectations, the artist is willing to embrace their vulnerability and express their need for love.

If it means having you to keep
The artist values their significant other's love so highly that they are willing to risk being perceived as weak or vulnerable in order to keep them in their life.

'Cause lately I've been losing sleep
The singer's need for love and affection is so strong that it is causing them to lose sleep and have trouble functioning.

Lonely nights echo your name
The artist's thoughts are consumed by their significant other's absence, especially during lonely and quiet moments of the night.

Oh, sometimes I wonder
The singer experiences moments of doubt and uncertainty about the state of their relationship.

Will I ever be the same?
The singer is concerned that their life will never be complete or fulfilling without their significant other's love.

When you see me smiling
The singer's outward appearance does not necessarily reflect their inner emotional state.

You know things have gotten worse
If the artist appears happy or content, it is a sign that they are actually sadder and more desperate than ever before.

Any smile you might see has all been rehearsed
The artist's smiles are not genuine or spontaneous, but rather a performance designed to disguise their inner turmoil.

Darling, I can't go on without you
The singer is expressing a sincere and urgent need for their significant other's presence, affection, and love.

This emptiness won't let me live without you
The singer feels an emotional emptiness or void in their life without their significant other, and cannot imagine living without them.

This loneliness inside, darling
The artist is acutely aware of their own loneliness and how deeply it affects them emotionally.

Makes me feel half alive
Without their significant other's love, the artist feels incomplete and as though they are only living a half-life.
