Lyrics
It's not the way it was before
Reflecting on a changed relationship compared to the past.
His touch was heaven, I remember
Nostalgic recall of the positive feelings from his touch.
But every rose, it has its thorn
Acknowledging that every positive thing has its negative aspects.
Before you know, you prick your finger
Warning about the unforeseen consequences that can follow.
Two truths, one lie
Introduction of a game-like scenario with truths and lies.
Don't really need it
Expressing independence and self-sufficiency.
No, not tonight
Declining something for the night.
Three words, nice try
Rejecting insincere expressions of affection.
Don't even mean it
Doubting the authenticity of certain words.
It ain't a secret that
Acknowledging a well-known fact.
He's not my baby, my baby, my baby now
Asserting that the person is no longer her baby.
He's not my baby, my baby wouldn't let me down
Affirming that her real baby wouldn't disappoint.
I fell for those eyes one too many times, oh oh
Recalling being captivated by his eyes multiple times.
He's not my baby, my baby, my baby now
Reiterating that he is no longer her baby.
I fell for those eyes one too many times, oh-oh
Repeating the experience of falling for his eyes.
He's not my baby, my baby, my baby now
Reaffirming that he is not her baby anymore.
He was the perfect kinda rain (perfect kinda rain)
Describing him as a fleeting but perfect kind of rain.
The kind that comes but never lingers
Highlighting his transient presence.
He knew exactly what to say (what to say)
Acknowledging his skill in presenting a selective view.
To only paint you half the picture
Emphasizing his ability to manipulate perception.
Two truths, one lie
Continuation of the game-like scenario.
Don't really need it
Reiterating the lack of necessity for certain things.
No, not tonight
Declining something for the night (repeated from line 8).
Three words, nice try
Rejecting insincere expressions of affection (repeated from line 9).
Don't even mean it
Doubting the authenticity of certain words (repeated from line 10).
It ain't a secret that
Reaffirming a well-known fact (repeated from line 11).
He's not my baby, my baby, my baby now
Reasserting that he is not her baby.
He's not my baby, my baby wouldn't let me down
Stating that her real baby wouldn't let her down.
I fell for those eyes one too many times, oh-oh
Recollecting being captivated by his eyes repeatedly.
He's not my baby, my baby, my baby now
Reiterating that he is no longer her baby.
I fell for those eyes one too many times, oh oh
Repeating the experience of falling for his eyes.
He's not my baby, my baby, my baby now
Reaffirming that he is not her baby anymore.
He's not my baby, my baby, my baby now
Further affirmation that he is not her baby.
He's not my baby, my baby wouldn't let me down
Stating that her real baby wouldn't let her down.
I fell for those eyes one too many times, oh-oh
Reiterating the experience of falling for his eyes.
He's not my baby, my baby, my baby now
Emphasizing that he is no longer her baby.
He's not my baby, my baby, my baby now
Final assertion that he is not her baby.
