Edie Brickell


Baby baby black & blue time sure took a toll on you 
What you what you gonna do tomorrow 

Oh the world has got you down cry your heart out on the ground 
Gimme strength to pick you up and keep you from dying 
Give me strength and give me love 
I can never have enough 
All I want is someone who will never stop trying 

Baby baby black & blue time sure took a toll on you 
What you, what you gonna do tomorrow 
I don't wanna see you cry got to make you realize 
You got more to give me than your sorrow 

Yes, yes, yes, yes you do now 
Yes, yes, yes, baby, yes you do now 
Yes, oh yes, yes you do 
Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, 
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes you do 

Far away in my first dream visions that are lost to me 
Touch me when I'm touching you ever so gently 
Can you feel it yes you can 
Just give me your little hand 
I will show you someone that you never thought you'd be 

Baby baby black & blue time sure took a toll on you 
What you, what you gonna do tomorrow 
I don't wanna see you cry got to make you realize 
You got more to give me than your sorrow 

Yes, yes, yes, yes you do now 
Yes, yes, yes, baby, yes you do now 
Yes, oh yes, yes you do 
Oh yes, yes, yes you do 

There's a big door with a little window 
And the big world is peekin' through 
Lay your head here on my pillow 
I want to take care of you 
There's a big door with a little window 
And the big wide world is peekin' through 
Lay your head on my pillow 
I want to take care of you 

Yes, yes, yes, yes I do now 
Yes, yes, yes, baby, yes I do now 
Yes, oh yes, yes I do 
Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, 
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes I do 

Oh the world has got you down cry your heart out on the ground 
Gimme strength to pick you up, pick you up, pick you up 
Oh the world has got you down cry your heart out on the ground 
Gimme strength to pick you up, pick you up, pick you up 

Baby baby black & blue time sure took a toll on you 
What you, what you gonna do tomorrow 
I don't wanna see you cry got to make you realize 
You got more to give me than your sorrow
