Anybody Seen My Baby? Lyrics
She was more than beautiful
Closer to etherial
With a kind of down to earth flavor
Close my eyes
It's three in the afternoon
Then I realize
That she's really gone for good
Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
Love has gone and made me blind
I've looked but I just can't find
She has gotten lost in the crowd
I was flippin' magazines
In that place on Mercer Street
When I thought I spotted her
Getting on a motor bike
Looking rather lady like
Didn't she just give me a wave?
Salty tears
It's three in the afternoon
Has she disappeared
Is she really gone for good
Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
If I just close my eyes
I reach out and touch the prize
Anybody seen her around
(Rap)
Anybody seen my baby
Anybody seen her around
If I just close my eyes
I reach out and touch the prize
Anybody seen her around
Lost, lost and never found
I must have called her a thousand times
Sometimes I think she's just in my imagination
Lost in the crowd
Closer to etherial
With a kind of down to earth flavor
It's three in the afternoon
Then I realize
That she's really gone for good
Anybody seen her around
Love has gone and made me blind
I've looked but I just can't find
She has gotten lost in the crowd
In that place on Mercer Street
When I thought I spotted her
Looking rather lady like
Didn't she just give me a wave?
It's three in the afternoon
Has she disappeared
Is she really gone for good
Anybody seen her around
If I just close my eyes
I reach out and touch the prize
Anybody seen her around
Anybody seen her around
If I just close my eyes
I reach out and touch the prize
Anybody seen her around
Sometimes I think she's just in my imagination

This song has a catchy bassline that goes along with the melody. It's cool.
i love mick's talk-singing voice in this. it's sexy. he's sexy
Sounds like a quick and dirty affair. She was hot.
But,,,
maybe a slut.
Oh well...

Someone please post something about this song, dammit! I love it and want to know the story behind it
When Keith Richards daughter heard it for the first time she told him it was a rip-off of kd lang's Constant Craving, which he claims he never heard. Just to play it safe they gave her a cowriting credit. She said she appreciated it but wouldn't have sued.
Bono??? wtf??? I think this one is about that beautiful that is deep within us and he is looking for that... as we all are.. inthe video the old man rips his chest open and we see only the mechanics, not his soul, so we are looking for that beauty everywhere, when it actually within us... there are many pointers to this in the video. (old lady in the shower, man with a mechanic chest, black guy cutting his head apart and others).
it's beautiful........a man looks for his girl, who left him......how nice...bono sings really great!
Which one is he talking about? I know how he gets his girls, it's not because of his pretty face, he ain't got one! He's the devil, he's ugly, skinny, old, yuk, disgusting!
