Babs Babs lyrics

(daryl hall)







Babs and babs lay dreaming in a four poster bed



Arm in arm, head to head, babs and babs



Babs said, "whatcha thinking? "



She said, "nothing



But I never do cause I leave it up to you"



Babs looked out the window



Saw the moon and the sky



She saw the clouds drifting by



Voices crying and sighing and dying but she said nothing







"look out on the lawn, theres a moon out tonight



Theres a moon out tonight, cantcha see? "



"silver dreams dont move me or your talk of the stars



And this isnt the time or place to make a fool of me.



No one wants to hear you when youre slipping away



And the light of your day always shows up the strength of your vision."



But she said nothing.







So babs said "dont you worry, Ill take good care of you



Youre lack of feelings a rotten thing



But Ill show you what to do.



Girl, youve got to get away



Girl, youve got to feel, oh, yeah."



Babs said "dont you patronize me, Im fine the way I am



At least I know whats happening



And I know just where I stand.



You live alone you die alone



When your dreams all fade away, oh, yeah."







Never compromising, never see eye to eye



So they turn, with a sigh, babs and babs



Have to be together like the night and the day



So they might as well stay the best of friends.



Locked in love we leave them with the moon in the sky



With the clouds drifting by



Voices crying and sighing and dying and we say nothing



She said nothing
