She confessed her love to me, then she vanished on the breeze Trying to hold on to that was just impossible She was more than beautiful, closer to ethereal With a kind of down-to-earth flavour Closed my eyes at three in the afternoon Then I realised that she's really gone for good Anybody seen my baby? Anybody seen her around? Love is gonna make me blind I've looked but I just can't find She has gotten lost in the crowd I was flipping magazines in that place on Mercer Street When I thought I spotted her And I'm getting on a motorbike, looking really ladylike 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 sky Anybody seen my baby? Anybody seen her around? It's nine o'clock, I can't forget the dirty And it's the wrong hour, and it's all over the world We can't keep it right for everybody, alright bitch Anybody seen my baby? Anybody seen her around? Has anybody seen her? Anybody seen her around? If I just close my eyes I reach out and touch the sky Anybody seen my baby? Anybody seen her around? I must have, I must have called her a thousand times Sometimes I just think she's just in my imagination I don't know where she's gone Lost in the crowd
