Lena Horne
I Wish I Was Back in My Baby’s Arms
I wish I was back in my baby's arms
I wish i was back to stay
Every time I kissed him I'd tell him that I missed him
And promised i would never leave again

I wish I was back in my baby's arms
I'd gladly take the blame

I'd wrap my blues in cellophane and put them on a shelf
And then I'd find a mirror and congratulate myself
Oh I wish I was back in my baby's arms
And I wish my baby wished the same
I wish I was back in baby's arms
I wish I was back to stay

Oh every time, every time I kissed him
I'd tell him, I'd tell him how I missed him
I promised, promised I would never go away
I wish I was back in my baby's arms
Why I'd gladly take the blame

I'd wrap my blues in cellophane, put them on a shelf and then I'd find a mirror and congratulate myself
Yes, I wish I was back in baby's arms and I wished my baby wished
Yes I wished my baby wished the same
