Sun is shining, there's plenty of light (oh yeah)
New day is dawning, sunny and bright (oh yeah)
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)
Oooh 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 a young heart be saying
But fun is a bore and with money I'm poor

Since I lost my baby (since I lost my baby)
Oooh 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)
'Bout this love she left behind her ('bout this love she left behind her)
Til I find her I'll be tryin' ta (til I find her I'll be tryin' ta)
Every day I'm more inclined ta find her
Inclined ta find her
Inclined ta find my baby....
been lookin' everywhere (baby)
Baaby, I really really care...

Ooh determination is fading fast (oh yes)
Inspiration is a thing of the past (oh yes)
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)
Oooh since I lost my baby (since I lost my baby)

I feel so bad
I feel so sad
Everything is wrong
This heart is hard to carry on
Eewhew I'm lost as can be
What's gonna happen to me?
