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
