Paroles de Nobody's Baby Now

I've searched the holy books I tried to unravel the mystery of Jesus Christ, the saviour I've read the poets and the analysts Searched through the books on human behaviour I travelled this world around For an answer that refused to be found I don't know why and I don't know how But he's nobody's baby now I loved him then and I guess I love him still His is the face I see when a certain mood moves in He lives in my blood and skin His wild feral stare, his dark hair His winter lips as cold as stone He was my man But there are some things love won't allow I held him hand but I don't hold it now I don't know why and I don't know how But he's nobody's baby now This is the dress that I loved best With the blue quilted violets across the breast And these are my many letters Torn to pieces by long-fingered hand He was a cruel-hearted man And though I've tried to lay him ghost down He's moving through me, even now I don't know why and I don't know how But he's nobody's baby now He's nobody's baby now Nobody's baby now He's nobody's baby now
