Hey, girl, put away your handkerchief
Dry your eyes and get ahold of your heart
Lift your head up, don't you worry now
Brighter days are just about to start
You been scraping bottom long enough
Pushed and pulled by every ";all-the-way"; guy, yeah
But now I'm here to shelter you
And love you faithfully until I die, yeah
You're my baby now
And I wanna take care of you
You're my baby now
And I wanna take care of you
Don't you be afraid to follow me
Take my hand and let me lead you away
Away from all those bitter memories
That you're having trouble shaking today, yeah
Just relax and let me open your eyes
To all the things you never could see
'Cause once you're in my arms and feel the love
I got for you you're gonna be free, yes you will
Don't you worry, baby
(Don't worry, baby yeah)
Hmm, everything gonna be all right
