Ingram, James - A Baby's Born Lyrics






Winter never seemed so cold
You've grown old
And time has slipped away
Yesterday was just a dream
Faded schemes
Now turned silver grey
As old friends pass away
And yet a baby's born

Life is but a grain of sand
Washed away
Beneath the morning tide
Precious hours grow too few
Somehow you
Must try to justify
The aging of your mind
And yet a baby's born

Newborn baby, don't you cry no more
Shed no tears for a passing soul
Newborn baby, don't you cry no more
Shed no tears for a passing soul

Yesterday was just a dream
Faded schemes
Now turned silver grey
As old friends pass away
And yet a baby's born

And yet a baby's born
And yet a baby's born
And yet a baby's born
And yet a baby's born
...

  33. R.... M....

    I love this song very much, because I was baby, now, I'm growing, as my parents passed away from Cancer, I kept thinking about my parents, I kept thinking about the future, I wonder myself if I'm ever to become an independent person, whereas, I'm a baby that's already born, and I long to make my parents feel proud, to let them see that I am independent. I wish that I could see my parents again. Plus, with this song that I love, James Ingram's my favorite soul singer.

    R.... M....

    Oh my! I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending you love and light 🌠

  34. G.... R....

    THIS SONG WAS DEDICATED TO HIS SON JASH INGRAM... MY CUZZO

    This reminds me of my son, Thando, I shall miss him not.

    James Ingram - A Baby's Born Lyrics

    Artist: James Ingram
    Album: Always You

    Winter never seemed so cold
    You've grown old
    And time has slipped away

    Yesterday was just a dream
    Faded schemes
    Now turned silver grey
    As old friends pass away
    And yet a baby's born

    Life is but a grain of sand, washed away
    Beneath the morning tide
    Precious hours grow too few
    Somehow you must try to justify
    The aging of your mind and yet a baby's born

    Newborn baby, don't you cry no more
    Shed no tears for a passing soul
    Newborn baby, don't you cry no more
    Shed no tears for a passing soul

    Yesterday was just a dream
    Faded schemes
    Now turned silver grey
    As old friends pass away
    And yet a baby's born.

  38. A.... C....

    Life is a continuum. Like a stream, just as the sun dries the water as it flows, the clouds become full and empty themselves right back into the stream.
