The sun is shining
there's plenty of light
A new day is dawning
sunny and bright
But after I've been
crying all night
The sun is cold and
the new day seems old
Since I lost my baby
(since I lost my baby)
Oh since I lost my baby
(since I lost my baby)
The birds are singing
and the children are playing
There's plenty of work
and the bosses are paying
Not a sad word should our
young hearts be saying
But fun is a bore
and with money I'm poor
Since I lost my baby
(since I lost my baby)
Oh since I lost my baby
(since I lost my baby)
Next time I'll be kinder
(next time I'll be kinder)
Won't you please help me find her
(won't you please help me find her)
Someone just remind her
(someone just remind her)
Of this love she left behind her
(of this love she left behind her)
'Til I find her I'll be crying
('til I find her I'll be crying)
Everyday I'm more inclined to find her
inclined to find her
Inclined to find my baby
Been looking everywhere
baby I really really care
Oh determination is fading fast
Inspiration is a thing of the past
Can't see how my hope's gonna last
Good things are bad
and what's happy is sad
Since I lost my baby
(since I lost my baby)
Oh since I lost my baby
(oh since I lost my baby)
I feel so bad
(since I lost my baby)
I feel so sad
(since I lost my baby)
