SINCE I LOST MY BABY William Robinson, Jr and Warren Moore (album: Forever, For Always, For Love - 1982) 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 Oh 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) Oh since I lost my baby My baby, my baby, my baby Next time I'll be kinder, to my lady Won't you please help me find her (I've got to find that girl) Someone just remind her Of this love she left behind her Til I find her I'll be trying to Everyday I'm growing kinder Tryin' to find her,find her Inclined to find my baby (My baby) I've been looking everywhere (My baby) Hey baby I really really care My determination is fading fast So fast, so fast so fast Exploration is a thing of the past I can't see how my hope's gonna last Good things are bad and what's happy is sad So sad, so sad, so sad Chorus and Fade
