Well, Im finished counting. Another game of hide and seek. I hear you running. I can feel your heartbeat now. . There aint nothing thats gonna keep me.
Like dust in the wind sand slips through your fingers. Similar to shattered dreams that still linger. Trying to succeed in whatever you do. But the failures of the past seem to laugh and mock you.
Well I know I might have let you down. I know it's hard to turn around. But can't you take one look at me. Before you leave me dyin'?. . I know I might have done you wrong.
Hey hey. Rappin' with ya is all I got to get by. Talkin' with ya is all I got to get by. When you call. When ya callin' me baby. Conversation. All your chit-chat is all I got to get by.
I wake up to watch you sleep. Just as long as I can watch you sleep. It makes me remember why. I made all those promises I swore to keep. . May the day never come.
Flipping through a magazine curlers in her hair. Waiting for her nails to dry in the beauty parlor chair. Soon she's turning thirty something discontent with life.
Nine O'clock turn it on, turn it on and your spellbound. It's a t.v. movie and it isn't a letdown. Now "The Killer" is on, and they're nearing the takedown.
Well if Hell is just a place down below. Then tell me why should I go. When I could just go back to California. Just go back to California. . And if Heaven is just a place up in the sky.
The city is spread, reach to the heavens. This cloud cover breathing the soft and rain. Yes, I'm good looking, oh yes, I have money. Don't it count for nothin' over there, don't it count for nothin'.
Lord knows I ain't perfect,. I make my share of mistakes,. You fall down,. You get back up,. You do whatever it takes,. Life don't come so easy,. Ain't no handbook,.
I light your world, yes, I painted it with sunshine. But all you see is tall gray clouds. You say your freedom is everything, you need time. But all you really want is out.
I've been thinkin' too much. As I drive down this highway alone. Too much time on my hands. Sometimes my mind starts to roam. . And it tears at my heart.
There's a picture in my mind. I can't get out. I can see so clear and bright. Kinda like the sunshine shining through the clouds. . Imagine for a moment.
I won't stand in her way. Spread her wings and she'll fly. You know it's hard to be free. When you slave to get by. . This time ain't gonna let it get me down.
I wont stand in her way. Spread her wings and shell fly. You know its hard to be free. When you slave to get by. . This time I aint gonna let it get me down.
Since the first time, I can't take my poor eyes off you. Though it seems I've lost my mind, you make my heart new. Any fool would run. But I can't help myself around you.
You're looking at me and it's easy to see that you want me. I don't hide things well. So I bet you can tell that I want you too. We sit for a while then both of us smile.
Well it's amazing and I'm okay. I've got a rhyme and I've got my reasons. But if there's a better way. Well it's something that I'd love to find. . Slip away to my secret place.
If only there were time and tenderness. Oh, for young hearts of wilderness. We run to the city, we build our nest. We work, we get drunk, we make love.
Sometimes when I sleep. I can see you walkin' back to me. And sometimes I wake up. 'Cause I swear that I felt your touch. And emotions overcome me. And the darkness is so cold.
