John Waite - Thinking About You Lyrics
Thinking about old times
Thinking about the things we said
All the worthless games and lies
I'm looking at myself
And the mirror's unkind
And you're outside my eyes
And I'm looking for something
That's real in my life, something true, yeah!
And I'm looking for something to hold on to
But I guess it won't be you
Thinking about
Thinking about
Thinking about you all the time
But this song is not for you
Of all the things I could've done
I walked right out the door
Left like a loaded gun
Into the street
And these new days drag on
Through the long afternoon
I'm smashed and Flintstones are on TV
Yeah well sometimes I wake up round midnight
With you wreathed around my skull
Like a halo of lies most of the time
And I'm in denial coming down from the ceiling
I was just your stepping stone
You burned out all my feelings

John Waite Thinking About You Comments
gosh this brings back some memories for me lost love heartache and the girl I never got over
Only wish we could have this music today . This is pure talent . John Wait is great . They are so good ❤️❤️🎶🎶
the 60's, 70's and 80's had outrageously talented pool of vocalists- what happened to make them disappear??
Still loving it!!
Magnificent!!
Hell yeah
The girl on the left is Melanie Chartoff (voice of Didi Pickles from Rugrats).

Reminds me of good times past ... Jammin in January 2020! 😎✌️
Wow, this is a really Good One!!
Love to go back to 1979. I was out of the United States Marine Corps for 2 yrs, boy did I let my hair. Loved this song, enjoyed dating the ladies then. BUT fell in love, on Leap Year Night 29 Feb 80, on a blind date. We've been married for 39 years.
too much pressure, imaginary heroine
You had to be there!
So many memories!! I still LOVE this song!
one of my faves from back in day.
The chord structure on this song is entirely unique. The way it changes keys multiple times within the song is reminiscent of Brian Wilson—and there's no higher compliment in my book. Bravo!
I still get the chills listening to this amazing GEM from the Baby's. The vocals, the melody, and the 'build up' in several parts of the song keeps my blood racing through my veins. Should have been a #1 smash. Also love Isn't it Time. Thank you for posting!!
Such a classic I can listen to this song over and over again and it will never get old.
aVERY underraTed group
Guys heLp me,...I canT?b?the onLy guy thinking abouT bing wiTh those 2babes.
One of the best love ballads of all time!
Pure brilliance! Still 2020
Great song!! Love The Babys!!
Special era in music
Every single time...
Tina M. Dow ...it turns out good!
When I was stationed at Ft
illy
Riley,Ks. in 1970 & 71, there was a group called The Babys that would occasionally play in Junction City. Wonder if this is the same band. Anyone know?
Time goes by to quickly... I want to go back!
Back in my Senior year again. Thanks !!
Someone find me a hot pink one-shouldered bodysuit on the double
41 Years ago. Hopefully, our grandkids will see this and know we're not dweebs.
Look at the thumbnail: Sam Malone / Carla Tortelli hybrid
Saw this title and was thinking of Missing You, which starts with the same lyrics.
I still have this on 8 track DAMN I'M OLD lol
❤❤❤❤❤
he is as good as ever. I go to his show every year and his pipes are as good as when he was young. going to see him and the little river band in february
good song
It's alway good
It always turns out good!💋
WOW 💖
I just realized this song is 41 years old.
ahhhh....back in the days when you didn't have to have a politically correct ethnic 'diversity' in a band.
scotts rolling papers
zig zag job with know rapers
chemical vapors
You're built for l💋ve
Gorgeous voice
Love you Sean East!!!!
Sort of has the same sound and tempo of “Maybe I’m Amazed,” by Paul McCartney & Wings..
the perfect song
One of two Baby's hits that peaked at #13, though I think "Isn't It Time" is the better song. However both shine today. John Waite of course went on to a #1 hit with "Missing You" in '84. And despite that, I think these two songs were better.
I never could figure out why this band wasn't much bigger.
All THAT WE DESTROY. LOL
What a great song ! Thanks for putting this on ... Mike's Music Flash backs...🤗
Fuel for my time machine.
What a terrific singer he is and the music is absolutely magnificent real gem I like how this song builds up into a strong ballad well if you agree give me a hoot y'all have a good day happy New Year everyone
Everytime I think of you!
I’m only thumbs up because of the record player and the hot backup singers 🎁🎅🏼🎄
especially the record player :)
Never gets old.
Released 40 years ago...
Let that sink in.
Still a banging track
like this song
LORRAINE WILSON Im a Pisces born to like music, starting with Partridge Family TV Show 1970-1974. Buffalo, NY had a great music scene in 70s at Bills Stadium 10 years of concerts 4 every summer. Rolling Stones liked Buffalo played here 6 times. Led Zeppelin 2 times, Alice Cooper, Bob Seger, Aerosmith, Reo Speedwagon, Journy, The Who, The Clash, Doobie Brothers, Allman Brothers, Origanal Lynyrd Skynyrd. Country singer Alan Jackson, Some kind of a Trend started most bands opened saying HELLO BUFFALO. Honestly some concerts were Dangerous because lack of Security. Im saying about Security because I was only 5'6 Tall & I was a big drinker of beer. Im of IRISH Decent of course I drink Beer. Didn't help most GF were Partiers like me. Even Buffalo Bills games were crazy, fans would throw snowballs at the players. Buffalo is known as a big drinking City, Bars are open till 4am. Also Buffalo has a hugh IRISH Population. Not much fun living in Buffalo our winters are 5 months long November - March. Lake Erie dumps 10-12 feet every winter. We were called SNOW CAPITAL OF USA from 1977 Blizzard, bad storm 19 feet City & Schools closed for 3 weeks. Lake Erie frezzes over every year, that helps with the snow. Even the weather guys cant figure out why we get more snow than other Citys near 5 Great Lakes. At least we have the Lake for summer fun.
This reminds of high school great memories
Man!!! Right
John Waite what a hottie💕
Funny ... The Babys are five men ... but the two women, who are so essential to the song ... aren't members??
I guess it was the same for their other hit?
Now fake singers us auto tune.
Wow still sounds awesome from 1979 The Babys , this takes me back.
Please stop social begging. I have seen comments like WHO IS WATCHING 2019, 2020, 2021. Please share what you feel
love this song
Like the badys back in the day
My son kills his gf's clones while listening to this song
I did a roof repair for him. Nice guy
Grunge and Rap were the beginning of the end.
Love and adore this song 💖💖💖💖💖
Who's still listening oh yes life is so good and the sweet memories of our growing up will last and last
Love this song period
The best of The BEST....
Music from the good old days......love it!!
Great band that was in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong name. They just didn't cut through big in America as Journey kind of came along and stole that piece of the rock/pop pie. The name did not help them. I didn't care. I think they are the most under-rated band of the late 70's ear 80's. Every song every album is solid. Journey came along and flat out stole Jonathan Cain. John Waite at least had a smash with Missing You and the rest is history. tony Brock awesome drummer who played with Rod Stewart for awhile. Just so much better than anything that's coming out for the last 20 years. Better songs and better playing for that style of music.
John Waite was foolish. He turned down quite a few tunes of Jonathan's Cain that later became some of the biggest hits for Journey.
mr. waite`s bajora earwear?
Stop with that crazy "Still listening in 2019 anyone else"
Dat Blond has Somme Pipes !!
John Waite has such a amazing voice and his music is some of the best easy listening features that anyone can find their own personal connection..
Journey's Johnathan Cain.
This song reminds of a very special girlfriend that I loved and lost .she has past away.
Sometimes life sux mate
I met john Waite in a parking lot bar back in 1977 in South jersey with my old best friend
My wife doesnt get it . Cocaine love isnt how its supposed to be .
I woke up to this song yesterday! Why it has been years!!! WOW!!
OH in my head!! I have know idea why!!! mike wen't to sleep before I!! I just kept hearing How I think of YOU!! Love it tho!! ha LOL!!
Love this song!
I can see why I don't remember this song.
SO HERE I AM 6:18AM WATCHING THIS!!! I WONDER WHAT MY NEIGHBOR ABOVE ME THINKS OF IT?? WHO CARES I LOVE IT😁😁
