Lyrics

Lately (Going Spare)

Lately, I've been goin' crazy Thinkin' of the time we had our first baby My baby, you're my baby Sittin' on the sofa, watchin' the TV Waitin' for the sun to come up While I'm feedin' our baby, yeah, our baby And even though you must be close I can hardly see you (be close) I'm in paradise, yeah, I'm in paradise With you Lately, I've been feelin' uneasy But you pick me up When you hug and you squeeze me, my baby You're my baby Sittin' on the plane there, playin' our Mario I can't explain how it feels To be far from you, my baby Makes me crazy And even though you must be close I can hardly see you (be close) But I'm in paradise, yeah, I'm in paradise With you Lately, I've been going spare Lately, I've been going spare
