Nobody's Baby Now (Live at Alexandra Palace, 2020)

I've searched the holy books

I've tried to unravel the mystery of Jesus Christ, the Savior

I've read the poets and the analysts

I've searched through the books on human behavior

I've traveled this world around

Well, I look for an answer that refused to be found

Well, I don't know why and I don't know how

But she's nobody's baby now

I loved her then and I guess I love her still

Well, hers is that face I see when at certain mood moves in

She lives in my blood and skin

But her wild feral stare and her dark hair

And her winter lips just as cold as stone

Yeah, I was her man

There are some things even love don't allow

Well, I held her hand but I don't hold it now

I don't know why and I don't know how

But she's nobody's baby now

This is her dress that I loved best

It's got blue quilted violets all across the breast

These are my many letters

All torn to pieces by her long-fingered hand

Well, I was her cruel-hearted man

And even though I've tried to lay her ghost down

Well, she's moving through me, even now

Well, I don't know why and I don't know how

But she's nobody's baby now

Yeah, she's nobody's baby now

No, no, no

No, no, no, no, no

Oh, no, no, no, no, no

No
