Eliza Gilkyson Baby's Waking
Oh my darlin', when you wake up
I will surely be smilin'
Just to see you
On a wagon
With your baby blue eyes shinin'.
There'll be birds outside your window
Struttin' and-a-singin'
[Bridge:]
Glory, glory,
Hallelujah,
Baby's waking up.
On that bright and wondrous mornin'
You will finally understand this
How it feels
To love a woman
When you've grown into a man.
When you face a lonely mirror
And the truths become your friend
[Bridge]
[Chorus:]
Baby's wakin' from a bad dream
He's gonna let somebody in
And the trouble that he's carryin'
He's gonna let it go
Oh, how it feels good
To work it out.
[Chorus]
Oh my darlin', when you wake up
I will cross the ocean twice
Just to be your
Lovin' witness
To forgiveness deep inside.
Until then I won't be stayin'
But I'm hopin' and I'm prayin'
That some mornin'
You'll be singin'
Baby's waking up.
Baby's waking up.
