SADE lyrics : "Tar Baby"

Words: Adu
Music: Adu, Matthewman



Grandma came to see
something she could not believe

How could her girl be
so naive


Tar baby, tar baby
told the secret she conceived


Oh, that big old smile of yours
could turn the wind into a song
How could I have doubted

honey it's with me that you belong

Tar baby, tar baby

I love you so
(I love you)


Like a brand new blade
you cut into my life
Cut through two decades

like a hot coal on ice

Tar baby, my tar baby

it maybe, was meant to be
When I look at you
I can't believe my eyes

And with your magic
I think you just might charm the birds out of the skies


Tar baby, tar baby
came good out of grief


A golden thread inside of the web
that I got caught in
Oh, it's a lover's revenge, but out of the pain

come the best things you see

You cut into my life

You cut into my life (baby baby baby baby don't you know that)
You cut into my life (I love you)
You cut into my life


La la la la la ooh
You can turn the wind into a song

La la la la la baby baby baby
It's with me you belong
