Baby
Why you not home yet
Baby it's getting late
I wish you would be home by now.
Door bell rings
Who could it be at this time
Police on my left and right
My son's not coming home tonight

Baby, they don't need to show
It's over, I know, I know
Baby, they don't need to show
Flowers and football tops, I know
Baby, baby, baby, why you?

No sweeping exits
No Hollywood endings
Flowers and football tops
Don't mean a thing.

My baby is six feet under
Just another number
My daughter without her brother

Baby, they don't need to show
It's over, I know
Baby, they don't need to show
Flowers and football tops, I know

Baby, baby, baby, why you?

My baby is gone...

(You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are grey
I hope you noticed
How much I loved you
How could they take my sunshine away)

When your sparkle evades your soul
I'll be at your side to console
When you're standing on the window ledge
I'll talk you back, back from the edge
I will turn, I will turn your tide
Be your shepherd, I swear, be your guide
When you're lost in your deep and darkest place around
May my words walk with you home safe and sound

When you say that I'm no good and you feel like walking
I need to make sure you know it's just the prescription talking
When your feet decide to walk you on the wayward side
Climbing up upon the stairs and down the downward slide
I will turn, I will turn your tide
Do all that I can to heal you inside
I will be the angel on your shoulder
My name is Geraldine, I'm your social worker

I see you
Need me
I know you do

I see you
Need me
I know you do
I know you do

I will turn, I will turn your tide
Do all that I can to heal you inside
I will be the angel on your shoulder
My name is Geraldine, I'm your social worker

Oh, oh, how you're my hero
Oh, oh, how you're never here though
Remember times when you put me on your shoulders
How I wish that it was forever you would hold us
Oh, oh, right now I'm too young to know
How in the future it will affect me when you go
Oh, oh, you could have had it all
You, me, and mum y'now
Anything was possible

I won't be the lonely one
Sitting on my own and sad
A fifty year old
Reminiscing what I had
I won't be the lonely one
Sitting on my own and sad
Forget your dad, he's gone
Forget your dad, he's gone

He's gone, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone....oh oh ooooh ooh

All I wanted was a kick-a-bout in the park
For you to race me home when it was nearly getting dark
How I could've been yours, and you be mine
It could've been me and you until the end of time
Oh, do what you want, when you want

Be as fucking insincere as you can
What kind of way is that to treat your wife
To see your son on Saturdays
What way is that to live your life?

I won't be the lonely one
Sitting on my own and sad
A fifty year old
Reminiscing what I had
I won't be the lonely one
Sitting on my own and sad
Forget your dad, he's gone
Forget your dad, he's gone

He's gone, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone....oh oh ooooh ooh
He's gone, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone....oh oh ooooh ooh

Oooooooooooo...oh..aye..aye..aye..aye
oh..aye..aye..aye..aye
oh..aye..aye..aye..ayeee
ooh..ohh..ohhhhhh

oh..aye..aye..aye..aye
oh..aye..aye..aye..aye
oh..aye..aye..aye..ayeee
ooh..ohh..ohhhhhh

I won't be the lonely one
Sitting on my own and sad
A fifty year old
Reminiscing what I had
I won't be the lonely one
Sitting on my own and sad
Forget your dad, he's gone
Forget your dad, he's gone

He's gone, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone.....oh oh oh oh
He's gone, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone.....oh oh oh oh
He's gone, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone.....oh oh oh oh!
He's gone, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone.....oh oh oh oh!

Oh, He's gone, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone.....on..on..on..on
He's gone, he's gone, he's gone, he's gone.....oh oh oh woh ohh......
