Lyrics for Since I Lost My Baby

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) 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 (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 trying (Til I find her I'll be trying) Everyday I'm more inclined to find her Inclined to find her Inclined to find my baby I've been looking everywhere Baby (Baby), I really, really care Oh, determination is fading fast (Hohoo yeh) Inspiration is a thing of the past (Hohoo yeh) 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 (Since I lost my baby) I feel so bad (Hoo hoo, Since I lost my baby) I feel so sad (Since I lost my baby) Everything is wrong (Hoo hoo, Since I lost my baby) This heart is hard to carry on (Since I lost my baby) I'm lost as can be (Hoo hoo, Since I lost my baby) What's gonna happen to me?
