Oh, baby, why won’t you open your eyes?
Oh, baby, you’ve been sleeping all the morning through the night
Oh, baby, there’s something weird about your breath
Oh, baby, please tell me you still haven’t been taken home by death.
When life goes backwards, you don’t know what to make of it
You wish and pray that all this time you’ve just been dreaming
I heard that call and it broke my heart into a million tiny pieces
All I have left is the faith that you’re lying somewhere finally at peace.
Oh, baby, I can barely remember your face
Oh, baby, it’s been so lonely since you’ve left this space
Oh, baby, I have the promise to hold onto my faith
Oh, baby, I know that you were saved by love and grace.
When life gets shortened, you don’t know how to face it
You wish and pray that this is not really happening
I heard that call and then I find myself burying my own seed
I still have my faith intact although I did cry, beg and plead.
