It's like a stranger in my hand (the baby is crying)

Dm                    C
Is it something in my head (look up)

       Bb            Dm
Or the time of season

Or the little boy in my hands (must be a reason)

Dm                              C
Yeah, there's new meaning in my life (a shake-up)

            Bb                 Dm
But there's pain and confusion

And I'm trying to understand (all of the changes)

I've been cut so deep but I can't make it bleed
