Where did my baby go?

John Legend isn't my favourite singer.
I just love his phenomenal song, "Ordinary People".
That's my song when I was stress and hectic of university entering examination preparation in 2005. One part of the chorus of the song kept remain in my head at that time:
"We're just ordinary people, we dont know which way to go...."

(Actually the whole meaning of the song didn't relate at all with my situation xp )

In February 2008, when I followed Padjajaran Medical Fair, I sat next to Navy.
He brought his ipod and I wanted to copy his songs from there.
When I scrolled down the list on his iTunes and found songs from John Legend, I asked him to choose the most easy listening and catchy ones.

He picked "Save Room", "Maxine" and "Where did my baby go".

I like the first two, but I stucked at the last song.
I dont know the reason why I like it, it's just....
The mood of this song really hit me every time I hear it.
I could feel the emotion that John Legend tried to say by this song....

I showed this song to my two friends and ask them to hear it.
But they said:
"Oh my god, this song is so pathetic."
"So slow and so sad. Why are you like this song?"

Weeew. Maybe it's better not to tell them -_-"

This morning, I listened again to this song and I searched the lyric.
And here are the part of its:

Where did my baby go?
I wonder where she ran off to
I miss my baby so I'm calling but I can't get through
Please tell that girl if you meet her
That someone's longing to see her
Where did my baby go? I wish that she would get back soon (get back soon)

I'm searching for the lover I knew
Have you seen her? Where did she go?
Feels like I've just lost my only friend
Flames subsided, colors faded
Love just got so complicated
Wish that I could see her smile again
So if you see her out there,
tell her I'm still here
Waiting for the day when she will reappear


After I read it,
I just got more stunned. Really stunned.

No need to tell the reason here.
So don't ask me why.
