This song was written in the summer of 2022 and it's dedicated to Ronnie Spector.

lyrics

I’ve got a feeling that I’ll never be lonely
While you’re in my head
And if I’ll never be your one and only
A boy can dream instead
Knowing you know is good enough for me, baby
So I won’t even try
And while you hold him I’ll be kissing the shadows
And chase the stars in the sky

No, you’ll never be my baby
Oh no, you’ll never be my baby
Oh yeah

In his apartment over there by the window
I think of taking a chance
(I think I might take a chance)
I practice asking you to go to a disco
But I don’t know how to dance
(I don’t know how to dance)
If I could show you everything I’ve been dreaming
Then you would understand
My friends say if I had more self-esteem
Then you might take my hand
(Come on and take my hand)

No, you’ll never be my baby
Oh no, you’ll never be my baby
Oh yeah

I keep on hoping that you’ll turn to me, babe
And I wait for the day
I close my eyes and it’s a guarantee, so
I won’t wish it away

No (no), you’ll never be my baby
Ooh no, you’ll never be my baby
Oh yeah

No (no), you’ll never be my baby
Ooh no, you’ll never be my baby
Oh yeah

You'll never be my baby
It's ok
You'll never be my baby
It's ok
You'll never be my baby

about

Brian Michael Henry New York, New York

Brian Michael Henry's music examines the humanity of monsters atop pulsing layers of cold electronic production that call to mind both John Carpenter’s signature synth scores and modern darkwave artists like Cold Cave in equal measure. Henry’s vocals, however, are a baritone croon and lend a notable warmth to each song, creating a more three-dimensional portrait of his characters.. ... more
