Water Baby Lyrics by Robert Naylor (UK)

Robert Naylor

0

Water baby, floating in the stream
Left by someone's mother
He's a water baby, tightly wrapped and warm
Set down by a nameless hand
And fell asleep to waft onto the sand
It's the oldest story of them all
And yet it seems today we still have water babies
Frightened by the storm, crying ever helplessly

A water baby, draped in woolen shawls
Put outside a city door
Because there was no room for any more
It's the oldest story of them all
And yеt it seems so easy to be

Moses, back in thе reed boat
Until a princess finds the boy
And he grew up such a great man
They tell me he could show the world
A better way to be, a better way to be

Water baby, cast off from her home
Too many last demands and she's a water baby
Bring forth tears of love, guided by a weathered hand
And fell asleep until the bridge is spanned
It's a different outline every time
And yet I think they read the same as

Moses, back in the reed boat
Until a princess finds the boy
And he grew up such a great man
They tell me he could show the world
A better way to be, a better way to be
