In the midnight moonlight I'll
Be walking a long and lonely mile
And every time I do
I keep seeing this picture of you 

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy 
Here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine
Never could be mine, no matter how I try 

You never walk alone
And you're forever talking on the phone 
I've tried to call you names
But every time it comes out the same 

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy 
Here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine
Never could be mine, no matter how I try 

I'm still waiting for your heart
'Cause I'm sure that some day it's gonna start 
You'll be mine to hold each day
But 'til then this is all that I can say 

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy 
Here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine
Never could be mine, no matter how I try

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy
