Baby lyrics

[Verse 1]
Nothing so bright
Nothing so smooth
Nothing so pure
As my baby

[Verse 2]
All of my life
Days into night
All I did dream
Was my baby

[Verse 3]
Until the day
Darkness entwined
With silver eyes
Was my baby staring
At me

[Interlude]
And since then I can't see straight
And since then my smile's been fake

[Verse 4]
Funny I know
The troubles I've seen
But through one eye only
That's clear
[Verse 5]
If you bring along your needles
Then I'll bring my sharpened pencils
And draw one more comic tragedy
My baby

[Verse 6]
So call up the child players
From madam we'll rent the parlor
And dance to death
Till I can't see
My baby
