Listen to My Babe Lyrics

I listen to my babe inhale
I listen to my babe exhale
I hope my babe is feeling well
When my babe suffers, me as well
I?m incomplete in every way
I forgot to feed my babe today
I took my babe up on the hill
With no idea my babe is ill

How is it I care so much
And still forget important stuff
It seems my babe?s not even here
It seems my babe has disappeared
I spent a while away from home
I went to see life on my own
I kept my babe out of my mind
I pretended that this heart?s not mine

On returning home I found
My babe was dug into the ground
My babes? heart was clean and pure
The man had said there was no cure
My babe cried ?please let me out?
I couldn?t hear cause I had doubts
About the things I can?t control
So far away where life is cold
