I heard this song on the radio and I really liked it, but I'm usually not a big fan of music so I can't identify what genre it was. I only remember a few snatches of the lyrics, but it seemed to be telling the story of a girl and said something like "she was somebody's baby, she was somebody's child" but I've spent the past hour searching google with no success. At one part of the song the lyrics talk about wanting her to come/go home. If anyone has heard of this song or has any idea what it might be (I wouldn't mind if you give me a list), I'd greatly appreciate the help
Many thanks,
Sandra
The first song that comes to mind is Jackson Browne's Somebody's Baby:
Well, just - a look at that girl with the lights comin' up in her eyes.
She's got to be somebody's baby.
She must be somebody's baby.
All the guys on the corner stand back and let her walk on by.
She's got to be somebody's baby.
She must be somebody's baby.
She's got to be somebody's baby.
She's so fine.
She's probably somebody's only light.
Gonna shine tonight.
Yeah, she's probably somebody's baby, all right.
I heard her talkin' with her friend when she thought nobody else was around.
She said she's got to be somebody's baby; she must be somebody's baby.
'cause when the cars and the signs and the street lights light up the town,
She's got to be somebody's baby;
She must be somebody's baby;
She's got to be somebody's baby.
She's so....
She's gonna be somebody's only light.
Gonna shine tonight.
Yeah, she's gonna be somebody's baby tonight.
I try to shut eyes, but i can't get here outta my sight.
I know i'm gonna know her, but i gotta get over my fright.
We'll, i'm just gonna walk up to her.
I'm gonna talk to her tonight.
Yeah, she's gonna be somebody's only light.
Gonna shine tonight.
Yeah, she's gonna be somebody's baby tonight.
Gonna shine tonight, make her mine tonight.
