The Babys

Songwriter: Tony Brock Michael Corby Wally Stocker John Waite

Producer: Bob Ezrin Brian Christian

And when I'm all alone at night
The things I've done pass through my mind
The thoughtless words, the useless fights
I guess I'll never learn 'cause here I go
Over and over again

Why? Why? Why? Why?
Over and over again

I thought I had it all worked out
Just what to say and what to do
So why these fears and all this doubt
Just sitting in my room, thinking it over
Over and over again

Why? Why? Why? Why?
Over and over again
Over and over again

Over and over again

And if I thought that things would change
I'd say I'm sorry once again, ooh
But this time things feel so damn strange
I know I'll never love

Over and over again
Over and over again

The Babys are a British rock band most famous for their hit songs “Every Time I Think of You” and “Isn’t it Time”. The band featured vocalist John Waite, and future Journey keyboardist Jonathan Cain.

The band’s name was originally a joke that stuck. According to Waite:

We took the name simply because the record companies wouldn’t listen to any bands they thought were rock & roll. I mean, they wanted sure-fire teen bands, pre-teen bands. We couldn’t get anybody down to hear us to get a record deal, so we called ourselves The Babys. We thought we’d keep the name just for two weeks. Then, the word got around in London that there was a band playing rock & roll called The Babys and it seemed so off the wall, so completely crazy, that it was worth taking a shot with. It really appealed to everyone’s sense of humor.
