Accidental Babies Lyrics
Artist(Band):Damien Rice
Well I held you like a lover
Happy hands and your elbow in the appropriate place
And we ignored our others, happy plans
For that delicate look upon your face
Our bodies moved and hardened
Hurting parts of your garden
With no room for a pardon
In a place where no one knows what we have done
Do you come
Together ever with him?
And is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
And do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?
What about me?
Well you held me like a lover
Sweaty hands
And my foot in the appropriate place
And we use cushions to cover
Happy glands
In the mild issue of our disgrace
Our minds pressed and guarded
While our flesh disregarded
The lack of space for the light-hearted
In the boom that beats our drum
Well I know I make you cry
And I know sometimes you wanna die
But do you really feel alive without me?
If so, be free
If not, leave him for me
Before one of us has accidental babies
For we are in love
Do you come
Together ever with him?
Is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
Do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?
What about me?
What about me?

Review about Accidental Babies
So moving | Reviewer: Adam | 8/29/2008I have only just discovered Damien Rice, and thank God I did. He is amazing. As all my fellow reviewers have already said, this song in particular is a work of art, so honest, heart-wrenchingingly painful, and yet so beautiful.
Thank you Damien, for sharing this with us...
Beautiful | Reviewer: Sarah | 7/24/2008
this song relates so heavily on my life.
my situation is a tad more complicated and ironic than the average cheating situation. I cheated on my boyfriend with his best friend (terrible but he was the guy that I truly loved although I did love both of them which was what made it so hard). I eventually broke up with my boyfriend for his best friend and I had never been happier however me and the ex-boyfriend kept trying to keep our leverl of closeness which we had established. So I stayed at his house and we slept together. The irony is now that I actually ended up cheating on both of them. I may be a terrible person or perhaps I just got too confused to make a choice as I really did love both of them so much.
Now as it turns out, I'm a week late for my period. If I am pregnant and my boyfriend finds out then I have most likely ruined the first chance of happiness that has come my way in a long time let alone having to have a child whilst taking a levels.
sorry this turned into a full blown confession...I meant to write about the song lol but thats the first time Ive ever written it down and it felt good. The song I can totally imagine my ex-boyfriend singing to me because so many of the things mentioned here reflected my feelings aswell as the things we used to do to each other.
And god yes. I realy do miss his smell :(
... | Reviewer: Brea | 5/7/2008
So tragic, so painful and so touching...
Though I don't really connect it with a situation from my life, still it makes me cry every time when I hear it. Fantastic lyrics, so beautiful, and the way he sings it...
Breathless | Reviewer: G | 4/16/2008
When I first heard this song, I was left completely breathless ... though being young and not having cheated in my relationships, I can still incredibly connect with this song since it's also a song about longing to have something. And I absolutely agree that this is the most moving song I have ever hears. It's so insanely honest and that's what gets me every time. True poetry! Beautiful :)
This song mirrors my life | Reviewer: A | 8/20/2007
Everything in this song reminds me of the situation I'm in at the moment, but many of Damien Rice's songs seem to describe my love life. I'm not exactly having an affair, but i've been seeing a lot of my ex girlfriend recently, and I want her back. Whats more she's told me she has feelings for me to and is uncertain about what will happen. I've now broken up with my gf, and thus this song describes my situation.
Fantastic, and amazing lyrics | Reviewer: Richy | 7/20/2007
I really like this song. To me it has a special meaning. I was seeing another girl behind my gf's back (yes I know - an awful thing to do). The girl I was seeing told me to listen to this song, as it made her cry every time she heard it. it reminded her of me and her, and what we had.
The lyrics are so accurate. And the song is great.
As for how its affected me? Well, lets just say I've now made the right choice, left my gf, and am with someone who truly drives me wild, and is dark enough to see my light. Amazing how a song can be so true, so moving, so accurate, yet so beautiful
moving in every way | Reviewer: Christopher Golden | 7/9/2007
This song is absolutely the definition of my feelings right now...the man makes me cry every time I hear these words because it not only paints a picture of his all-too-familiar relationship, but also his clearly expressed remorse for not being able to commit sooner. I can't stop listening to this in spite of the pain and tears it causes me...
Perfect | Reviewer: John D | 4/20/2007
This is lyrically the most moving song i have ever heard. It is pure poetry sung with the most amazing conviction that it sounds like you are truly listening to the mans painful thoughts.
I am a 29 year old male that cried like a baby the first time i actually listened to the lyrics.
This song is about a couple who are having an affair:
"we ignored our others happy plans"
"we use cushions to cover happy glands in the mild issue of our discgrace"
But he is desperate to make it more and wants to know if she will pick him over her other lover.
I think the lyrics below are just about the most tragically honest i have ever read. You can feel the pain in the words.
"i know i make you cry, i know sometimes you want to die, but do you really feel life without me"
amazing
Tragically Beautiful | Reviewer: jon bacon | 2/20/2007
He has captured the true sound of heartbreak, a story of a lost lover. He is an absolute poet. Beautifully simple.
