I will send you out a message
I will telephone a love song
I'll collect all of your stories
I haven't seen you for so long

Do you wonder what I'm up to?
Do I ever cross your mind?
May we love the things we cling too
There is never enough time

I would watch as you was sleeping
To make sure you were still breathing
You live so fast without seeing
This eternal youth is fleeting

Oh take care of my baby
Take care of my baby
Take care of my baby
I don't think he can do it himself

Oh what to do with my hands
They've no others to hold
They lay sadly by my side so cold

What to do with my head
When I've no place to lay it
I spend the month in bed
So you'll hold me for a moment

I would watch as you was sleeping
To make sure you were still breathing
You live so fast without seeing
This eternal youth is fleeting

Oh take care of my baby
Take care of my baby
Take care of my baby
I don't think he can do it himself
