Baby Day Lyrics

Melanie Safka

Why sleep, when the day is being called up by the sun,
From the night, cause the light's gonna shine on everyone,
Why sleep, when the sleep only closes up our eyes,
Why sleep, when we can watch the sunrise,

We were meant to see the beginning of the day,
I believe it was planned to lift us this way,
Take you an apple and take you a song,
Watch a baby day be born,
Take you an apple and take you a song,
Watch a baby day be born,

Quite, quite, said I, that's so very well to say,
But I rose before the dawn to your singing yesterday,
I couldn't see the rising, cause the dark was in the sky,
I couldn't see the sun, cause the sun was in my eye,

Take you an apple and take you a song,
Watch a baby day be born,
Take you an apple and take you a song,
Watch a baby day be born,

Why sleep, I heard, and I followed it today,
To the top of the hill where the windsongs play,
And I sing it like I heard it; why I heard it, who knows why,
Why sleep, when we can watch the sun rise,

We were meant to see the beginning of the day,
I believe it was planned to lift us this way,
Take you an apple and take you a song,
Watch a baby day be born,
Take you an apple and take you a song,
Watch a baby day be born,
Take you an apple and take you a song,
Watch a baby day be born,
Take you an apple and take you a song,
Watch a baby day be born,

Take you an apple and take you a song,
Take back an answer to something gone wrong,
Take back some music, and take me along,
And watch a baby day be born,
Watch a baby day be born...
