Erykah Badu A Child With The Blues Lyrics

A Child With The Blues Lyrics

Could have never known that when losin'

Could hurt you so very bad

Could have never known that when chosin'

Could make you feels 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 a smile for yourself 

Yourself

Girl, don't make livin' so hard

So hard, I keep tellin' myself

I keep tellin' myself



Feels like I'm goin' away

Sometimes it ain't all damn fair

I'm a child with the blues

Baby, blue



Sisters, sisters

I know you're watchin' me

There are a lot of games reachin' for you

Constantly



When you think you're grown

You're entering the unknown

Baby, check yourself

Brace yourself

Face yourself

Protect yourself



Ooh, feels like my life is just existing

And I'm missing someone



It's hard to replace the simple fact

It's 'cause my lover is gone



Tell it to ya ....

And you're walkin' in my shoes

You're a chils with the blues



I can't stop the flow, 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

A child with the blues

Baby, blue

This child is blue

Show no blues



A child with the blues, ooh



Blue...
