|
A lonely mother gazing out of the window |
|
Staring at her son that she just can't touch |
|
If at any time he's in a jam |
|
She'll be by his side |
|
But he doesn't realise it hurts her so much |
|
Guess all the hopin' just ain't helping at all |
|
Cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble |
|
So he goes out and he makes his money |
|
The best way he knows how |
|
Another body laying cold in the gutter |
|
Listen to me [Chorus:] |
|
Don't go chasing waterfalls |
|
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes |
|
That you're used to |
|
I know that you're gonna have it your way |
|
Or nothing at all |
|
But I think you're moving too fast |
|
Little precious has a natural obsession |
|
For temptation but he just can't see |
|
She gives him loving that his body can't handle |
|
But all he can say is baby it's good to me |
|
One day he goes and takes a glimpse |
|
In the mirror |
|
But he doesn't recognize his own face |
|
His health is fading and he doesn't know why 3 letters took him to his final resting place |
|
Ya'll don't hear me [Chorus x2] |
|
I seen a rainbow yesterday |
|
But too many storms have come and gone |
|
Leavin' a trace of not one |
|
God given ray |
|
Is it because my life is ten shades of grey |
|
I pray all ten fade away |
|
Seldom praise him for the sunny days |
|
And like his promise is true |
|
Only my faith can undo |
|
The many chances |
|
I blew To bring my life to anew |
|
Clear blue and unconditional skies |
|
You dried the tears from my eyes |
|
No more lonely cries |
|
I seen a rainbow yesterday |
|
Too many storms have come and gone |
|
Because my life is ten shades of grey |
|
I pray all ten fade away |
|
I seen a rainbow yesterday |
|
Too many storms have come and gone |
|
Because my life is ten shades of grey |
|
I pray all ten fade away [Chorus x3] |
|
I seen a rainbow yesterday |
|
Too many storms have come and gone |
|
Because my life is ten shades of grey |
|
I pray all ten fade away |
