Oh, the classic tale of love lost and the all-too-late realization of its worth! In "There Goes My Baby," The Drifters take us on a melodious journey of regret and longing. Our protagonist has clearly made a royal mess of things, breaking his sweetheart’s heart and earning himself a one-way ticket to Lonely Town. As he watches her sashay away, possibly forever, he's left questioning whether her feelings were ever real or if he was just the king of her temporary court of affection. Now, amidst his soulful lamentations backed by those smooth doo-wop sounds, he's desperate to shout from the rooftops (or at least warble through your speakers) that he needs her back. But alas, all he can do is watch and wonder - there she goes indeed!
