After Walking home Fresh dirt under my fingernails And I can smell hot asphalt Cars screech to a halt to let me pass And I cannot remember What life was like through photographs to recreate images life gives us from our past
And sometimes it’s a sad song.
But I forget Refuse to regret So glad I met you Take my breath away Make everyday Worth all of the pain that I have Gone through And mama I’ve been cryin’ Cause things ain’t how used to be She said the battles almost won And we’re only several miles from the sun.
Moving on down the street I people I won’t ever meet Think of her, take breath Feel the beat in the rhythm of my steps And sometimes it’s a sad song.
But I cannot forget Refuse to regret So glad I met you Take breath away Make everyday Worth all of the pain that I have Gone through And mama I’ve been cryin’ Cause things ain’t how they used to be She said the battles won And we’re only several miles from the sun.
The rhythm of her conversation The perfection of her creation The sex she slipped into my coffee The way she felt when first saw me Hate to love and love to hate Like a broken record player Back and forth and here and gone And on and on and on and on.
