<br />

<br />

The sun is shining, there's plenty of light (oh yeah)<br />

A new day is dawning, sunny and bright (oh yeah)<br />

But after I've been crying all night<br />

The sun is cold, and the new day seems old<br />

Since I lost my baby. (Since I lost my baby.)<br />

Oh, since I lost my baby. (Oh, since I lost my baby.)<br />

<br />

The birds are singing and the children are playing<br />

There's plenty of work and the bosses are paying<br />

Not a sad word should a young heart be saying<br />

But fun is a bore and with money I'm poor.<br />

<br />

Since I lost my baby. (Since I lost my baby.)<br />

Oh, since I lost my baby. (Oh, since I lost my baby.)<br />

Next time I'll be kinder (Next time I'll be kinder)<br />

Won't you please help me find her (Won't you please help me find her)<br />

Someone just remind her (Someone just remind her)<br />

Of this love she left behind her (Of this love she left behind her)<br />

Till I find her I'll be trying ta (Till I find her I'll be trying ta)<br />

Everyday I'm more inclined ta<br />

Find her<br />

Inclined ta<br />

Find her<br />

Inclined ta find my baby<br />

Been looking everywhere (ba--by)<br />

Baby, I really, really care!<br />

<br />

Oh, determination is fading fast (oh yeah)<br />

Inspiration is a thing of the past (oh yeah)<br />

Can't see how my hope's gonna last<br />

Good things are bad and what's happy is sad<br />

<br />

Since I lost my baby. (Since I lost my baby.)<br />

Oh, since I lost my baby. (Oh, since I lost my baby.)<br />

I feel so bad (since I lost my baby)<br />

I feel so sad (since I lost my baby)<br />

Everything is wrong<br />

This heart is hard to carry on (since I lost my baby)<br />

I'm lost as can be (since I lost my baby)<br />

What's gonna happen to me?
