Baby Father -- Sade

We were waiting for the bus No-one much around but us

Then I see this young boy cut a look at me I’m stunned
In a daze He had the whole street set ablaze
It’s only love they say Makes you feel this way

She liked his eyes she wanted more The baby gonna have your smile

for sure  He saw a lovely girl  Smelling sweet and soapy like fresh air

She saw him looking acted like she didn’t care That’s how we knew
And so love grew a flower A flower that is you
Your daddy knows you’re a flame (x4)

Even to the angels it may sound like a lie For you child He was the troops

and extra backup standing by  For you child  For you he’s the best he can

be For you child  For you he’s the best he can be

Oh child don’t you know Your daddy love come with a lifetime guarantee
Your daddy knows you’re a flame    daddy love you child

it's only you he’ll say Made the young boy hungry for the man he is today

It’s only love, love, love, love  Can make you feel this way
Your daddy knows you’re a flame                               (sing365)

In this Reggae-flavored number, frontwoman Sade Adu sings of a male figure who can be the father of a woman's child and a strong male role model, without necessary being a life mate.    (songfacts)
