Pretty Baby – English Lyrics

• By: Vanessa Carlton

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

You light me up and then I fall for you

You lay me down and then I call for you

Stumbling on reasons that are far and few

I'd let it all come down and then some for you

Pretty baby, don't you leave me

I have been saving smiles for you

Pretty baby, why can't you see

You're the one that I belong to

I'll be the embrace that keeps you warm

For you're the sun that breaks the storm

I'll be alright and I'll sleep sound

As long as you keep comin' round, oh, pretty baby

And I know things can't last forever

But there are lessons that you'll never learn

Oh, just the scent of you, it makes me hurt

So how's it you that makes me better

Pretty baby, don't you leave me

I have been saving smiles for you

Pretty baby, why can't you see

You're the one that I belong to

I'll be the embrace that keeps you warm

For you're the sun that breaks the storm

I'll be alright and I'll sleep sound

As long as you keep comin'

Can't you hold me and never let go

When you touch me, it is me that you own

Pretty baby, oh, the place that you hold in my heart

Would you break it apart again

Pretty baby, don't you leave me

I have been saving smiles for you

Pretty baby, why can't you see

You're the one that I belong to

I'll be the embrace that keeps you warm

For you're the sun that breaks the storm

I'll be alright and I'll sleep sound

As long as you keep comin' round

...

Pretty baby, why can't you see

Pretty baby, don't you leave me

Pretty baby, why can't you see

Pretty baby, don't you leave me

Oh, pretty baby, my pretty baby, my pretty baby

Don't you leave me, pretty baby, my pretty baby, my pretty baby

...
