A Child With The Blues

ERYKAH BADU

Could have never known that windows
Could hurt you so very bad
Could have never known that witches
Could make you feel so very sad
I don't know what to do
I just feel so confused
I'm a child with the blues

Take your time smell the flowers
oh yeah, make smile for yourself
Yourself
Girl don't make livin' so hard, so hard
I keep tellin' myself, I keep tellin' myself ooh
Feels like I'm goin' away
Sometimes it ain't all damn fair
I'm a child with the blues (ooh, baby blue)

Sisters, sisters, I'll tell you what you need
There are (???) reachin' for you constantly
When you thing you're grown you enter the unknown

Baby, check yourself
Brace yourself
Protect yourself
Face yourself

Oh, feels like my life is just excisting
And I'm missin' some one
It's hard to replace the simple fact
It's 'cause my lover is gone (gone no ooh)
Tell it to you on the prayer do's
And you're walkin'in my shoes
You're a child with the blues
(so blue, very blue)

I can't stop the float, can't stop it
Of the wet tears in my eyes
And if you're any other many kind of women
Woman in pain gotta rely, rely
Same emotion we share
Movin' fast but goin' nowhere
Like a child with the blues

I'm a child withe blues
Baby blue
This child is blue
Show my blues
A child with the blues
Blue.... aaaw yeah..
