James Taylor – Baby Boom Baby Lyrics  Share

From James Taylor's album: Never Die Young

Somehow the season always brings a picture of you, baby boom baby.
Holding on for everything you figured you^,re due, little turtleneck girl.
The moon on your shoulder, the wind in your lovely hair, oh what a night.
We sat on the beach and watched as the sun rose into the Summer air.

You said we couldn^,t miss what we never knew,
something about something that you had to do,
sitting on the sand with a hole in my shoe.

I had no way of knowing where you might have been, time goes by.
All on my own I imagine you a life in between, all own my own.
Wrote a long letter but it never made it out of my head, oh, oh,
somehow reading your name it wasn^,t the same as leaving the thing unsaid.

How come I miss what I never knew,
drag out the past just to paint it blue,
and spend my days with a dream of you?
[ Baby Boom Baby lyrics from

Oh, after the fall, here I^,m trying to find our name on the wall.
It was neither yours nor mine, it was something of the two combined,
from a time spent out of time.

I work hard to see that you remember my name, nod your head yes,
Do all I can to make you want to see me again, oh what a night.
Got a letter from the mail, got a message from the telephone.
Seems you^,re working in town, moving around, living alone.

Now I^,m caught in the spotlight, walking the wire,
my feet are frozen and my heart^,s on fire,
what do I do if my dream come true?
La la la, la la la la la...
