This Night Has Opened My Eyes |
In a river the color of lead |
Immerse the baby’s head |
Wrap her up in the news of the world |
Dump her on a doorstep, Girl |
This night has opened my eyes |
And I will never sleep again |
You kicked and cried like a bullied child |
A grown man of 25, |
Oh, he said he’d cure your ills |
But he didn’t and he never will |
Oh, save your life |
Because you’ve only got one |
The dream has gone but the baby is real |
Oh, you did a good thing |
She could have been a poet or she could have been a fool |
Oh, you did a bad thing |
And I’m not happy and I’m not sad |
A shoeless child on a swing |
Reminds you of your own again |
She took away your troubles |
Oh, but then again she left pain |
Oh, please save your life |
Because you’ve only got one |
The dream has gone but the baby is real |
Oh, you did a good thing |
She could have been a poet or she could have been a fool |
Oh, you did a bad thing |
And I’m not happy and I’m not sad |
