Justin Bieber - Baby ft. Ludacris (Verse 1) Sunrise hits the window pane, you're not there Just the ghost of your perfume hangin' in the air Used to be your morning coffee, your goodnight kiss Now I’m drowning in this silent, empty abyss Packed up all your pictures, put 'em in a box But the echoes of your laughter still rattle all the locks Said forever was the promise, etched in stars above Guess the cosmos lied to us about this broken love (Chorus) Oh, baby, baby, how’d we fall so deep in pain? Chasing shadows of a life that won't remain My heart’s a shattered record, skipping on your name And I’m just standing in the cold, pouring rain You were my everything, now you’re just a ghost I see Haunting every single memory of you and me It hurts to breathe, hurts to dream, hurts to love you so But the hardest part, my baby, is letting go (Verse 2) Your side of the bed is frozen, just like my soul Trying to piece together where we lost control Was it the late nights working, or the words we left unsaid? The distance grew a canyon while we lay in the same bed I remember holding you, feeling safe and sound Now I'm lost in this silence, nowhere to be found They say that time heals all wounds, but I'm not so sure 'Cause every passing minute makes the heartbreak endure (Chorus) Oh, baby, baby, how’d we fall so deep in pain? Chasing shadows of a life that won't remain My heart’s a shattered record, skipping on your name And I’m just standing in the cold, pouring rain You were my everything, now you’re just a ghost I see Haunting every single memory of you and me It hurts to breathe, hurts to dream, hurts to love you so But the hardest part, my baby, is letting go (Bridge) Maybe in another life, on a different street We could’ve made it work, made our ends meet But here and now, the story’s written in reverse A beautiful beginning that became a painful curse I'll always love the you I knew, the one who held my hand It’s a heartbreak only those who’ve truly loved can understand (Ludacris Verse) Yeah, Ludacris, check the mic, sometimes love just ain't enough We used to be Bonnie and Clyde, now the times are just too rough Like a '68 Mustang with an engine ready to blow We hit the wall at full speed, watch the pieces go You were my ride or die chick, my queen, my star Now I’m driving solo, haunted by how far we are Used to laugh at forever, now I just sit and frown Lost the best thing I had in this cold, heartless town From the penthouse views to the cheap motel rooms The silence is deafening, fillin' up with the fumes Of what we could've been, should've been, would've been But the story is over, let the credits begin (Chorus) Oh, baby, baby, how’d we fall so deep in pain? Chasing shadows of a life that won't remain My heart’s a shattered record, skipping on your name And I’m just standing in the cold, pouring rain You were my everything, now you’re just a ghost I see Haunting every single memory of you and me It hurts to breathe, hurts to dream, hurts to love you so But the hardest part, my baby, is letting go (Outro) Letting go, letting go... Of the life we built, of the love we knew... (Fade out with a soft piano melody) #baby #justinbieber
