This song is inspired by the collective losses 2020 has brought us all so far, with hopes that people will see the opportunity to change for the better on the other side of their pain.
lyrics
(I know in life pulls us in many directions, many paths, different ways)
Lately life has been taking us separate ways
After being together everyday
It's kinda hard on me, what about you
On we, what we gon' do
Cause baby, I haven't told you but I fear
The change that might come when you're not here
Like will we grow apart, Shh I'm scared
Your love I cherish everywhere
Oh..If you go, I'll still be okay
But I'll cry like a baby
Oh, don't you throw no shade
If I cry like a baby
(Baby, baby, baby)
If you go, I'll still be okay
But I'll cry like a baby
(Cry like a baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)
Oh, don't you throw no shade
Sensitive, you just don't understand where I've been
In all my past life relationships
And I never want to lose this
Just focus on me
Focus on you, on we
See baby...
You ain't gon' get this love just anywhere
Want all my energy for right here
And I thank you for loving me
Wholly, fully, ohh
Oh..If you go, I'll still be okay
(Oh babe, oh baby)
But I'll cry like a baby
Oh, don't you throw no shade
(Don't you throw, don't you throw no shade baby)
If I cry like a baby
(Baby, baby, baby)
If you go, I'll still be okay
(I'll be okay)
But I'll cry like a baby
(Cry like a baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)
Oh, don't you throw no shade
(Don't you throw)
If you were to leave
I'll lose a piece of me
(Ooh baby)
I hope you'll always keep
(I hope that you always keep)
If you were to leave
I'll probably lose sleep
But I'll see you in my dreams
(Lose sleep baby)
If you were to leave
I'll lose a piece of me
(Don't you leave me)
I hope you'll always keep
(I hope you'll always keep baby)
If you were to leave
I'll probably lose sleep
But I'll see you in my dreams
(Ooh)
Cry like a baby
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Just don't throw no shade
Or I'll cry like a baby
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
If you were to leave
I'll be okay
But I'll cry like a baby
Oh..If you go, I'll still be okay
But I'll cry like a baby
(Cry like a baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)
Oh, don't you throw no shade
(Baby, baby, baby)
(Cry like a baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)
Cry like a baby

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
