Baby Blue
Sarah Geronimo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been holding back my heart for too long
I was hypnotized, patronized
By your smile
You seem to take my breath away
Everytime you go, I know
Something is wrong

Time has come to give into

This feeling I try to deny
Deep inside I am crying
I have to let go

Chorus

Baby baby blue
The road isn't clear
I don't want you near me no more
Baby baby blue
We've been here before
And I just can't take it no more

My lonely soul is hungry for love
I'm delusively, reluctantly
On my own
Although I need you so desperatley
I see the lies in your eyes
There's no where to hide

You're my true love companion
But love isn't here by my side
Don't you hear my heart calling
I'm torn up inside

Chorus

I've been waiting for a miracle
Looking for the touch of an angel to show
I've been feeling so vulnerable
Playing this game with the devil
Holding my hand

Time has come to give into
This feeling I try to deny
Deep inside I am crying
I have to let go

Chorus

Baby baby blue
If this is for real
Then why do we keep running wild
Baby baby blue

I'm losin' control, I feel
Like a motherless child

Overall Meaning

Sarah Geronimo's song Baby Blue tells a story of a person who has been holding back her feelings for a long time but has finally come to the realization that she needs to let go of her love for the person she is singing to. The lyrics express the difficulty of coming to terms with the fact that the relationship isn't working and how it can be both painful and liberating to let go. The metaphor of the color blue is used throughout the song to represent the uncertainty and sadness that comes with ending a relationship. The chorus, "Baby baby blue, the road isn't clear, I don't want you near me no more," is a powerful statement of how the singer is ready to move on from the relationship.

Further, as the song continues, the lyrics suggest that the singer has been in a relationship with someone who hasn't been honest with them. This person makes the singer feel vulnerable and lonely. She has been searching for a miracle or some sort of divine intervention to show her the way forward. However, ultimately, the singer realizes that it is up to her to let go and move on. She feels like a motherless child without the person she's been with but she knows that she has to be strong and find her own way forward.
