Missing My Baby

About Missing My Baby

"Missing My Baby" is a song released by American singer Selena on her third studio album Entre a Mi Mundo (1992). It was composed by A. B. Quintanilla—her brother and principal record producer, whose intention was to showcase Selena's diverse musical abilities. Selena included it on the album to help her cross over into the English-speaking market. Critics praised her emotive enunciation in the song. After Selena was murdered in 1995, a posthumous music video made for VH1 was released to promote the triple box-set Anthology (1998). "Missing My Baby" is a mid-tempo R&B ballad influenced by urban and soul music. The lyrics describe the love felt by the narrator, who reminisces of rhapsodic events she has shared with her lover. In some parts of the song, the narrator experiences loneliness and anguish because of the absence of her boyfriend. Although never intended to be released as a single, the track peaked at number 22 on the US Rhythmic Top 40 chart in 1995 after Selena's death. more »

You're always on my mind, (day and night) day and night
When I think of you boy, everything feels so right
Well I often think of the happy times we spent together
And I just can't wait to tell you that I love you
Time keeps passing by, (you're not here) you're not here
I feel so all alone when I don't have you near
But I often think of the happy times we spent together
And I just can't wait (just can't wait) to tell you that I love you
I'm missing my baby, (missing my baby) missing my baby
I gotta hold you tight, and never let you out of my sight
Missing my baby, (missing my baby) missing my baby
I gotta feel your heart beat (your heart beat) next to mine
Gotta feel it
Time keeps passing by, (you're not here) you're not here
I feel so all alone when I don't have you near
Well I often think of the happy times we spent together
And I just can't wait (just can't wait) to tell you that I love you
I'm missing my baby, (missing my baby) missing my baby
I gotta hold you tight, and never let you out of my sight
Missing my baby, (missing my baby) missing my baby
I gotta feel your heart beat next to mine
Sometimes at night when I go to sleep
I hold my pillow tight,
thinking of you 'til is hurts
But in my mind, I know you're mine
And somewhere you're thinking of me too
Gotta have you (have you), gotta hold you (hold you)
Got to have your lovin' (I gotta have you)
And tell you that I love you
And I really miss you (I miss you)...
