Lyrics

Birmingham

[Verse: Kelsey Lu]

For when she heard the explosion

Her eyes grew wet and wild

She raced through the streets of Birmingham

Calling for her child

She clawed through the bits of glass and brick

Then lifted out a shoe

Oh, here's the shoe my baby wore

But baby, where are you?

[Refrain: Ian Isiah]

My baby, yeah

My baby, where are you?

Oh, oh, oh

My baby, oh, oh-woah

My baby, my baby, where are you? Oh

My baby

Oh, my baby

My baby, my baby, where are you?
