Bop Bop Baby
Westlife · World Of Our Own
Mom always said nothing would break me
Or lead me astray
Who would have guessed IÂ’d let my mind drift so far away
You always said I was a dreamer, now instead
IÂ’m dreaming of things thatÂ’s making my mind go crazy
Small things, like
When I call you at home and he answers the phone
Or I get your machine and I donÂ’t hear me
When I lie in my bed with the thoughts in my head
When we danced and we sang and we laughed all night
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, donÂ’t let me go
CanÂ’t live my life this way
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, just let me know
And put my mind at ease for sure
On a love train, twenty odd years now
I got off today
But nobody said the stop that IÂ’ve taken
Was a stop too late
Now IÂ’m alone, IÂ’m thinking of stupid, hurtful
Small things, like
When I call you at home and he answers the phone
Or I get your machine and I donÂ’t hear me
When I lie in my bed with the thoughts in my head
When we danced and we sang and we laughed all night
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, donÂ’t let me go
CanÂ’t live my life this way
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, just let me know
And put my mind at ease for sure
Maybe itÂ’s time to say goodbye
Maybe itÂ’s time to let this fly
This is when we must set things right
Now that weÂ’ve gone our separate ways
I just canÂ’t live these desperate days
This is what IÂ’ve been trying to say
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, donÂ’t let me go
CanÂ’t live my life this way
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, just let me know
Put my mind at ease for sure
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, donÂ’t let me go
CanÂ’t live my life this way
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, just let me know
And put my mind at ease for sure
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, donÂ’t let me go
CanÂ’t live my life this way
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, just let me know
Put my mind at ease for sure
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, donÂ’t let me go
CanÂ’t live my life this way
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, just let me know
And put my mind at ease for sure

Or lead me astray
Who would have guessed IÂ’d let my mind drift so far away
You always said I was a dreamer, now instead
IÂ’m dreaming of things thatÂ’s making my mind go crazy
Small things, like

Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, donÂ’t let me go

Put my mind at ease for sure
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, donÂ’t let me go
CanÂ’t live my life this way
Ooh, da bop bop baby, please, just let me know
And put my mind at ease for sure
