Justin Currie Baby, You Survived lyrics

Baby, can't you cry? Or is she ain't letting you?
That eyelash in your eye, ain't what's upsetting you
Though she's dead and out of sight,
She still throws your shoes across your room at night
And she still says you're cheap,
And in your sleep sets your sheets alight
So baby, don't you cry, she ain't worth it,
And besides, you're too old for lullabies

So baby, don't you sink back down that corridor
Take a breath and think what you've been running for
'Cause she can't help you now
All she can do is sulk around your house
And show up in your eyes when you're surprised that you're happy now
So be glad and proud, 'cause baby, you're allowed


And her shadow disappears when you shine a light down the years
And torch that hallway of souvenirs
So lately you and I have spoken of marrying
So it's time to say goodbye,
To that bag of broken things you're carrying
'Cause this time you can't hide
All you can do is trust her loving side
And walk on down the aisle with a smile
And her voice inside so still and quiet,
Saying, "Baby, you survived"
