Baby

Nothing so bright

Nothing so smooth

Nothing so pure

As my babyAll of my life days into night

All I did dream was my babyUntil the days darkness entwined

With silver eyes

Was my baby staring at meAnd since then I can't see straight

And since then my smile's been fake

Funny I know the troubles I've seen

But through one eye only that's cleanIf you bring along your needles

Then I'll bring my sharpened pencils

And draw one more comic tragedy

My babySo call up the child players

From madam we'll rent the parlor

And dance to death till I can't see

My baby

Yeah
