[00:35.600] |
A lonely mother gazing out of her window |
[00:38.600] |
Staring at a son that she just can't touch |
[00:43.600] |
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side |
[00:49.600] |
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much |
[00:56.600] |
But all the praying just ain't helping |
[01:00.600] |
At all 'cause he can't seem to keep |
[01:03.600] |
His self out of trouble |
[01:06.600] |
So he goes out and he makes his money |
[01:09.600] |
The best way he knows how |
[01:11.600] |
Another body laying cold in the gutter, listen to me |
[01:18.600] |
1-Don't go chasing waterfalls |
[01:22.600] |
Please stick to the rivers |
[01:24.600] |
And the lakes that you're used to |
[01:28.600] |
I know that you're gonna have it your way |
[01:31.600] |
Or nothing at all |
[01:33.600] |
But I think you're moving too fast |
[01:41.600] |
Little precious has a natural obsession |
[01:45.600] |
For temptation but he just can't see |
[01:52.600] |
She gives him loving that his body can't handle |
[01:57.600] |
But all he can say is baby it's good to me |
[02:03.600] |
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror |
[02:08.600] |
But he doesn't recognize his own face |
[02:14.600] |
His health is fading and he doesn't know why |
[02:18.600] |
3 letters took him to his final resting place |
[02:23.600] |
Y'all don't hear me? |
[02:25.600] |
1-Don't go chasing waterfalls |
[02:29.600] |
Please stick to the rivers |
[02:32.600] |
And the lakes that you're used to |
[02:35.600] |
I know that you're gonna have it your way |
[02:38.600] |
Or nothing at all |
[02:41.600] |
But I think you're moving too fast |
[02:48.600] |
1-Don't go chasing waterfalls |

Please stick to the rivers |

And the lakes that you're used to |
[02:57.600] |
I know that you're gonna have it your way |
[03:01.600] |
Or nothing at all |
[03:03.600] |
But I think you're moving too fast |
[03:11.600] |
I see a rainbow yesterday, but too many storms |
[03:13.600] |
Havee and gone leavin' a trace of not |
[03:15.600] |
Good-given ray, is it because my life is ten |
[03:17.600] |
Shades of gray, I pray all ten fade away |
[03:19.600] |
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days |
[03:21.600] |
And like His promise is true only my faith can undo |
[03:23.600] |
The many chances I blew to bring my life to anew |
[03:26.600] |
Clear blue and unconditional skies |
[03:27.600] |
Have dried the tears from my eyes |
[03:29.600] |
No more lonely cri endurin' pain that it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain |
[03:30.600] |
Who's to bl a shame |
[03:54.600] |
