I Wanna Be Your Baby
Babyface · Other Songs - Babyface
Lay it on the line,
And even if it breaks my heart,
I'm giving it a try.
Not waiting for tomorrow,
Confessing it today,
So baby, here it goes,
I'm out of time,
It's do or die.
I wanna be your baby,
Wanna be your man,
I wanna be your soldier,
When you're too weak to stand.
I wanna be your baby,
Be the end of your day,
Forever in your life,
And ever by your side,
Forever I'll stay.
I'm hanging on a thread here,
I don't care if I fall,
But I ain't gonna foe,
Even though,
I don't know,
If you feel me at all.
I'm ready to be right, or wrong, with you.
I'm ready for my heart, to win, or lose.
I'm ready to give all I've got to you,
Girl I want you to know.
I wanna be your baby,
Wanna be your man,
I wanna be your soldier,
When you're too weak to stand.
I wanna be your baby,
Be the end of your day,
Forever in your life,
And ever by your side,
Forever I'll stay.
So I'm saying I love you,
Ain't holding nothing back.
And I'm saying I want you babe,
I hope you don't mind that.
I'll wait on you forever,
And girl I promise that.
Oh baby,'cause I love you,
I love you babe,
I love you.
I wanna be your baby,
Wanna be your man,
I wanna be your soldier,
When you're too weak to stand.
I wanna be your baby,
Be the end of your day,
Forever in your life,
And ever by your side,
Forever I'll stay.
I wanna be your baby,
Wanna be your man,
I wanna be your soldier,
When you're too weak to stand.
I wanna be your baby,
Be the end of your day,
Forever in your life,
And ever by your side,
Forever I'll stay.
I wanna be,
I wanna be,
I need to be,
I got to be.
I Wanna Be Your Baby
Babyface's 'I Wanna Be Your Baby' stands as a quintessential example of his early 1990s R&B and pop sensibilities, blending smooth vocal delivery with lush, romantic instrumentation. The track exemplifies the polished production style that defined his work during the height of his solo career, characterized by intricate harmonies and a focus on emotional intimacy. While often associated with his broader discography of romantic ballads and dance-oriented hits, this recording captures the specific warmth and vulnerability that became his signature. It reflects the era's shift toward more sophisticated soulful pop, where the emphasis was on crafting a complete sonic atmosphere rather than relying solely on chart-topping singles. The song remains a testament to Babyface's ability to create timeless love songs that resonate through decades of musical evolution.
