They have been bugging me all afternoon!

Something along the lines of "Baby bye, don't you cry. Baby bye, say goodbye'

'Baby bye, wipe your eyes'

It had a very old fashioned voice singing it!

No idea where it's from. Those lyrics are probably very off

Bye bye baby - Bay City Rollers, mid 1970s

Sounds like the sad little song from Dumbo.

smurfy2015 · 11/08/2018 15:02

Do you have a sort of tune to it by any chance?

Sing at least 10 seconds of those words with any tune of it you can remember and it might help

My google search agrees with Bay City Rollers

I'd guess from Dumbo.

justwanttolookgood · 11/08/2018 15:10

You're right!

It is Baby Be Mine from Dumbo!

Brilliant

Thank you Smile Made me cry!

Ooh that's the first time I've been able to help on one of these threads! I always read them hoping I might know the song/film/book, and this time I did Grin

Glad to be of help!

ignat You really did Thanks

I've had a horrendous pressure headache today and not knowing the song was making things worse Envy

I feel a lot better after a really heavy cry, thinking about someone taking my baby because I was mean a wild cow Blush

It's such a sad clip, isn't it? When she feels with her trunk to see if it's him, then they wrap their trunks around each other Sad

RamonaQuimbyage38 · 11/08/2018 17:42

I've now got this stuck in my head. Thanks...

Clawdy · 11/08/2018 17:47

It's so sad. She lost her temper with the other elephants because they were making fun of Dumbo. Funnily enough, I spent years thinking how wrong it was that she never reappears. Then I mentioned that to my SIL, who said "Yes, she does! She's on the train at the end!" Next time it came on tv, I watched the end like a hawk.....and there she was, merrily waving her trunk! I was so thrilled Grin

justwanttolookgood · 11/08/2018 18:04

Clawdy I NEVER knew she reappeared at the end!!

Thank you so much for lifting my soul Grin
