lyrics

I just wanna get you close to me,
where you 'sposed to be, baby,
I just wanna get you close to me,
where you 'sposed to be, baby,
I just wanna get you close to me,
where you 'sposed to be, baby ,
so I've been praying on my rosary,
cause you 'sposed to be the answer to my prayers,
where did you go,
what do you know,
about me that made you want to leave,

time is money, but we giving it all away,
spending every day gathering some loose change,
paying off debts with the whole paycheck,
I.O.U. is what I'm writing on the next,
ticker tape parades for my people in the line,
cutting to the front cause I ain't wasting more time,
something caught my eye, literally turned on a dime,
oh my, she was something had me speechless like a mime,
time, stopped to the rhythm of my heart beat,
started speaking artfully, that shit was kinda startling,
struck a conversation up like matches on box,
sparked a new flame, now we heavy and we hot,
then I smelled rain, got soaked on the spot,
she ran away before I had a chance to grab another match,
so now thinking back, was it me or the rain,
either way I doubt I'll ever see her again,

waking up in cold sweat cuz I’m feeling hopeless
hoping and wishing on a star
hope I’m not interjecting just reflecting from afar
wish i could play discover and be wherever you are
but things change funny how they never stay the same
the more we try to fight what feels so right the more we blame
each other but its just a matter of self
my smooth lover, she operates with covers for stealth
and its the sweetest taboo that i happened to grab you
never dreamed about the finer things until i had proof
that you were in it to win it and ain’t no pretending
that i had the feeling to take you under like a thunderclap
i would tear this world asunder just to run it with you
got me feeling like a prisoner I’m trapped in this room
your body sings as you’re yearning for my touch
an angel gets its wings and the heavens open up
