Always Be My Baby Video (MV)




"Always Be My Baby" is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter, and record producer Mariah Carey for her fifth studio album, Daydream (1995).

Written and produced by Carey, Jermaine Dupri and Manuel Seal, "Always Be My Baby" is a midtempo song, with lyrics describing the feeling of attachment and unity the singer feels towards her estranged lover, even though they are no longer together, she says he will always be a part of her and will "always be her baby" even after they move on.

The song was a commercial success, becoming Carey's eleventh chart topper on the Billboard Hot 100, tying her with Madonna and Whitney Houston for most number-one singles by a female artist at the time.

The song is certified five-times platinum in the US with 1,254,000 units coming from physical sales, 890,000 coming from digital sales, and 856,000 coming from streaming equivalent units. It is also certified platinum by RIAA for selling 1 million units as master tone in the US by 2007.

In 2017, Rolling Stone readers voted "Always Be My Baby" the fifth greatest song of Carey's career, while Entertainment Weekly ranked the song second in a similar poll, writing, "there's no way we would ever try to shake her — even if we didn't know yet that 'always' really would last this long."

In 2021, Carey recorded a new version of the song which was included in the HBO Max's animated television special, The Runaway Bunny based on the book of the same name.

Mariah Carey - Always Be My Baby Lyrics
Official




Oh, yeah, yeah
Hey, shoo, do, do, do, do, do
Yeah

Do, do, do, oh
Do, do, do, do, do, do, da (babe)
Do, do, do, da (hey, yeah, yeah)
Do, do, do, do, do, do, da
Do, do, do (shoo, do, do, do, do, do, do)
Do, do, do, do, do, do, da
Do, do, do, da (baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)
Do, do, do, do, do, do, da

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, no

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, no, no, no)
No way, you're never gonna shake me
Ooh, darling, 'cause you'll always be my baby

Do, do, do (yeah)
Do, do, do, do, do, do, da
Do, do, do, da (do, do, do, do, do, do)
Do, do, do, do, do, do, da (yes, you will)

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, no, no

You'll always be a part of me
I'm part of you indefinitely
Boy, don't you know you can't escape me (no)
Ooh, darling 'cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on
Time can't erase a feeling this strong (yeah, no)
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, oh
I know that you'll be right back, baby
Oh, baby, believe me it's only a matter of time, 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 (yeah)
Ooh, darling, 'cause you'll always be my baby
And we'll linger on (and we will linger on and 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

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 (never, no, no)
And we'll linger on (you and I will always be)
Time can't erase a feeling this strong
No way, you're never gonna shake me (you and I)
Ooh, darling, 'cause you'll always be my baby (you and I)

You and I will always be (do, do, ah)
(Do, do, do, do, do, do, da)
No way, you're never gonna shake me (do, do, da)
No way, you're never gonna shake me (do, do, do, do, do, do, da)

You and I will always be (do, do, da)
(Do, do, do, do, do, do, da)
(Do, do, do, da) no matter what you do
