A 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.)
 Oh, 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. (Oh, 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)
 Till I find her I'll be trying ta (Till I find her I'll be trying ta)
 Everyday I'm more inclined ta
 Find her
 Inclined ta
 Find her
 Inclined ta find my baby
 Been looking everywhere (ba--by)
 Baby, I really, really care!

 Oh, determination is fading fast (oh yeah)
 Inspiration is a thing of the past (oh yeah)
 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)
 Everything is wrong
 This heart is hard to carry on (since I lost my baby)
 I'm lost as can be (since I lost my baby)
 What's gonna happen to me
