A.w.o.l. Lyrics - Prodigal Sista - Beverly Knight

I never see you anymore, you're absent without leave 

In life I learned a lot of things 

And what it brings to ya 

And how it's good to be alone sometimes 

I should have know you'd get an itch 

And you would switch on me 

And run away when day turns into night 

'Cos you're a... 

Good time sister 

Always out for something better 

Just when I need a friend you're... 

Absent without leave 

Good time brother 

Called you friend when I knew better 

Ain't got no time to spend you're... 

Absent witout leave 

So many people that I've found say they're down wit ya 

Then like a ship they sail on with the breeze 

See, in the sun they get a touch, but it's too much for 'em 

They fall around you like the winter leaves 

A little rain and they would run for cover 

(I can stil remember) 

When no-one else could see the need to shelter 

(How can I forget?) 

Knowing better times are round the corner 

(Oh I can still remember) 

So now when summer skies turn into grey, here's what I say... 

Good time sister 

Always out for something better 

Just when I need a friend you're... 

Absent without leave 

Good time brother 

Called you friend when I knew better 

Ain't got no time to spend you're... 

Absent witout leave 

Good time sister 

Always out for something better 

Just when I need a friend you're... 

Absent without leave 

Good time brother 

Called you friend when I knew better 

Ain't got no time to spend you're... 

Absent witout leave 

II never hear, I never see you (I never hear) 

I never hear, I never see you no more 

I never hear, I never see you (I never hear) 

I never hear, I never see you no more 

II never hear, I never see you (I never hear) 

I never hear, I never see you no more 

I never hear, I never see you (I never hear) 

I never hear, I never see you no more 

Good time sister 

Always out for something better 

Just when I need a friend you're... 

Absent without leave 

Good time brother 

Called you friend when I knew better 

Ain't got no time to spend you're... 

Absent witout leave 

Good time sister 

Always out for something better (absent... summer brother) 

Just when I need a friend you're... 

Absent without leave 

Good time brother 

Called you friend when I knew better 

Ain't got no time to spend you're... 

Absent witout leave 

Good time sister 

Always out for something better 

Just when I need a friend you're...(yeah ain't got no time to spend you're) 

Absent without leave 

Good time brother 

Called you friend when I knew better 

Just when my sky falls in you're... 

Absent witout leave
