My Baby Needs a Shepherd |
My baby needs a sheperd |
Shes lost out on the hill |
Too late I tried to call her |
When the night was cold and still |
And I tell myself Ill find her |
But I know I never will |
My baby needs a sheperd |
Shes lost out on the hill |
My baby needs an angel |
She never learned to fly |
Shell not reach sanctuary |
Just by looking to the sky |
I guess I could have carried her |
But I didnt even try |
My baby needs an angel |
She never learned to fly |
Oh I ran so far through a broken land |
I was following that drummer |
Beating in a different band |
And somewhere on the highway |
Ilet go of her hand |
Now shes gone forever |
Like her footprints in the sand |
Toora loora loora lo First the seed and then the rose |
Toora loora loora li My kingdom for a lullaby |
My baby needs a pilot |
She has no magic wand |
To help her part the troubled waters |
Of the Rubicon |
But in my soul I know shell |
Have to go this one alone |
After all that is only way shes ever known |
But there is no lamp in all this dark |
That could chase away her shadow |
From the corners of my heart |
I pray shes ride a dolphin |
But shes swimming with the shark |
Out where none can save her |
Not even Noah and his ark |
Toora loora loora lo To the cradle comes the crow |
Toora loora loora li My kingdom for a lullaby |
My baby needs a mother |
To love her till the end |
Up every rugged mountain |
And down every road that bends |
Sometimes I hear her cryin |
But I guess its just the wind |
My baby needs a mother |
To love her till the end |
