You Cry

I've been tryna to sleep I've been on my feet for much too long Maybe, I can put you down to sleep, baby I listened to you weep I swayed you in my arms from side to side I try to make you stop with just a touch, baby I kiss your head and You close your eyes and slowly I put you down so gently I think it's over when it starts again You cry, ooh, my baby you're awake No, I can't sleep until I calm you down I pray, ooh, just give me a little break Oh, when you're like this, I can't sleep till dawn I leave you in your crib I go and get the bottle with the milk I do it fast and hope you're still asleep, baby The room is dark and calm And all I wanna do is just relax I never really thought it would be hard, baby I kiss your head and You close your eyes and slowly I touch your head so gently I think it's over when it starts again You cry, ooh, my baby you're awake No, I can't sleep until I calm you down I pray, ooh, just give me a little break Oh, when you're like this, I can't sleep till dawn When I finally get to rest I remember how I'm blessed But here again, I face the test You cry, ooh, my baby you're awake No, I can't sleep until I calm you down Ooh, my baby, you're awake No, I can't sleep until I calm you down
