We were as one babe
For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine
Now you wanna be free
So I'm letting you fly
'Cause I know in my heart babe
Our love will never die

You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Boy don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling 'cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling 'cause you'll always be my baby

I ain't gonna cry no
And I won't beg you to stay
If you're determined to leave boy
I will not stand in your way
But inevitably
You'll be back again
'Cause you know in your heart babe
Our love will never end

You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Boy don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling 'cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling 'cause you'll always be my baby

I know that you'll be back boy
When your days and your nights get a little bit colder
I know that you'll be right back baby
Oh baby believe me it's only a matter of time

You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Boy don't you know you can't escape me
Ooh darling 'cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way you're never gonna shake me
Ooh darling 'cause you'll always be my baby

    General Comment:Personally I think that this Mariah Carey thing and also other pop music artists like Katy Perry, Jonas Brothers, Pussycat Dolls and other "talents" have a decent voice, marketable features, like decent sized boobs, and fairly quiet personalities, just crank out money for the corporations (major fucking record labels). and all these songs are shallow, yet somehow many people can somehow relate to them, and many people are unfortunately unable to see through the corporate greed behind these cookie-cutter artists. And I do not think that these songs are bad, or that these people have poor singing talent, but I absolutely hate, with every fiber of my being the greed and money there is to be made through these artists, and the shallow people who buy these records and cannot seem to understand anything aside from their own feelings and buying something that sounds good, but in essence, has no meaning.

    General Comment:Okay, David Cook did amazing cover of this on American Idol last night, and I was moved to tears by it. This is my favorite Mariah song, and I used to sing it all the time when I was 10.
