Sweet Baby

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The fun we use to share
Looking through the memories in my mind
Since I've laughed and cried and thought it over
Now I realize that it's never over only set aside
Oh it's you sweet baby
I will never be free from your embrace, sweet baby
It's you sweet baby
Ever lost and captured by your smile, sweet baby
I will always be right there by your side, right by your side
Lyin' here alone I'm dreamin', my mind keeps wanderin'
My thoughts are only you
Wanderin' through the memories in my mind
How could love so real have turned so empty
I just keep wanderin' why
Will I ever find the love we share together you and I
Oh, it's you sweet baby
Though we've had such a long hard road to climb, sweet baby
Only hopin' it's not too late to try again
It's you, sweet baby
Won't you try and believe in what I say?, sweet baby
I will always be right there by your side, right by your side
Oh it's you sweet baby
I will never be free from your embrace, sweet baby
Only hopin' it's not too late to try again
It's you sweet baby
Ever lost and captured by your smile, sweet baby
I will always be right there by your side, right by your side

agreed it's not usher... you can hear what usher sounds like as a teen on his debut album songs ('usher') or on that 1995/1996 track he did with monica... this dude sound nothing like the young teen usher

this is not Usher. you need to get your facts correct before you post things. this is one of Usher 's group members singing from the group called "the Nubeginnings" that usher was a part of in 1991. I know what I'm saying because I have the the Nubeginnings album. Usher had a kid voice in that album and not the teen voice like the guy singing in this song.
