Baby - Steve Forbert

The world is new in your newborn eyes

You got no shame and you tell no lies

Your slate is clean and your mind is free

Your soul is pure let it shine on me

Let it shine, oh baby, baby

Let it shine, yes let the whole thing breathe

Let it shine, baby

A concrete town and a deep blue sea

A highway sign and some lonesome trees

The mountains reach and the rivers flow

They wait for you in the year’s too long

Let it shine, yeah baby, baby

Let it shine, let the whole thing breathe

Just let it shine, oh baby

Prayers up to a God

Prayers up to a God

Prayers up to a God to your soul for the key

Sad old city moon

Sad old city moon

Sad old city moon

Sit down, down watched you sleep

Yes you little baby

You’ll travel up and you’ll travel down

Walk the road while the world spins around

With twinkling stars high above your head

You’ll live and die and you’ll end up dead

Let it shine, oh baby, baby

Let it shine, yes, let the whole thing breathe

Let it shine, oh baby
