Joan Armatrading - Baby I Lyrics






Remember when you took me
Out last night
It was a clear night
The nearest moon
I'd ever seen
Filled the sky
Threw light on the city

Remember when you took me
To some party
With your arms around my waist
Planning my weekends
Maybe planning
To change my name
I'm in love
And I got to let you know

Baby I
Want to be
In your loving arms again
Baby I
Want to be
In your loving arms again
Feel you near to me
Baby, ah can't you see
So much
Romance in the air
And all I really want
Is to be with you

    This song to me is amazing , the way she sings the chorus..."Baby I, I Wanna Be In Your Loving Arms Again,
    Baby I, I Wanna Be In Your Loving Arms Again,
    Feel You Near To Me, Babe I, Can't You See
    So, Much Romance, In The Air
    And, All I Want To Be Is With You"

  51. A.... T....

    It's true, but she joined her parents in UK when she was eight and grew up musically there. Anyway she is a citizen of the world, but also always linked to her native land.
