Yeah
One two three four
You know my baby's got the blues
And I don't know what to do
I don't know what to say
Should I go away
And pray for her sorrow
She sits there all alone
As silent as a stone
And I don't know how to help
Should I keep it to myself
And wait for tomorrow
And if I knew how to reach her where the waters run deep
I would give her the words that would help her to sleep
Baby's been so strong
But maybe for too long
Oh she tries so hard to hide
The mystery inside
But it cuts to the marrow
And if I knew what was missing, if I knew what was best
I would give her the peace that would help her to rest
At night she lays in bed
With secrets in her head
With pain too deep for words
And nothing can be heard
But the sound of her breathing
Mercies and angels up above, heaven please help the one I love
Guide the direction that she goes
Watch every step, each hidden stone, please let her know she's not alone
Give her the strength to trust in everything she knows
I've stayed up late at night
My head bowed in the light
And what I think at last
Is the problems in her past
Are the reason she's leaving
And if I knew how to reach her where the waters run deep
She wouldn't have the blues, she wouldn't have the blues
You know my baby's got the blues
And I don't know what to do
If she goes away
Should I try and make her stay
Till her night becomes day
And this deep sadness
Blows away
'Cause heaven knows
My heart is confused
'Cause my baby's got the blues
Ya know my baby's got the blues
Oh baby's got the blues yeh yeh
Baby's got the blue oh
And I don't know what to do, no no no
Baby's got the blues
