Baby boy, not a day goes by
Without my fantasies (come on, girl tell me what's the deal)
I think about you all the time

(I see you in my dreams, you done know di love is real)

Ah, oh, my baby's fly, baby, oh (oh, na, na, na)

(I see you in my dreams, you done know di love is real)

Picture us dancin' real close
In a dark, dark corner of a basement party (oh, na, na, na)
Every time I close my eyes
It's like everyone left but you and me (oh, na, na, na)
In our own little world
The music is the sun
The dance floor becomes the sea (oh, na, na, na) (ah we dat, girl)
Feels like true paradise to me (oh, na, na, na) (intimacy)

Baby boy, you stay on my mind
Fulfill my fantasies (come on, girl, tell me how you feel)

I see you in my dreams
(I see you in my dreams, you done know di love is real)
Baby boy, not a day goes by

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sean Paul's song Baby Boy depict a woman's infatuation with a man and her desire to fulfill her fantasies with him. The song's opening lines suggest that the man is certified quality and the girls cry for him daily without apology. The chorus reveals that the girl thinks about the guy constantly and sees him in her dreams. The lyrics create an ambiance of intimacy and longing as the woman seems to want a deeper connection with the man.


The second verse talks about the woman's fantasies in more detail. She imagines herself dancing closely with the man and how close they get. The woman paints a vivid picture of how the music fades, leaving only the two of them in their own little world. The song's bridge talks about the woman's attraction to the man, how he is always on her mind, and how she considers him fine. The song's final lyrics hint that the woman is willing to go to great lengths to be with the man.


In summary, the lyrics of Baby Boy paint a clear picture of a woman who has a deep desire for a man and her willingness to do anything to fulfill her fantasies. The song's lyrical genius lies in how Sean Paul and Beyoncé collaborate to create a narrative that feels intimate, private, and universal all at once.
