Erykah Badu - A Child With The Blues Lyrics




(feat. Terence Blanchard)

Could have never known that when losin'
Could hurt you so very bad
Could have never known that when chosin'
Would make you 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
Make a smile for yourself
Girl, don't make livin' so hard,
So hard, So hard, I keep tellin' myself

Feels like I'm goin' away
Sometimes it ain't all damn fair
A child with the blues

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
Protect yourself
Face yourself

Feels like my life is just existing
And I'm missing someone

It's hard to replace the simple fact
'cause my lover is gone, gone on

Never too young to pay your dues,
And you're walkin' in my shoes
You're a child with the blues, so blue, so blue

I can't stop the flow, can't stop it
Of the tears in my eyes

And if you're any of the many kind of women in pain,
Woman in pain, realize, realize

The 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...
