[00:00.52] Thing's all right and she's all too tight
[00:06.07] In my neighborhood she cries both day and night
[00:12.21] I know it because I was there
[00:18.42] It's a milestone but she's down on her luck again
[00:26.09] And she's daily salooning about to make her hard earned buck
[00:32.51] I was there
[00:38.87] I believe where she'd stop him if she wants time to care
[00:45.30] I believe that she'd look upon beside him to care
[00:51.70] And I'd go by the Lord and when she's on my way
[00:58.09] But I don't belong there
[01:05.02] No, I don't belong to her, I don't belong to anybody
[01:11.51] She's my Christ forsaken angel but she don't hear me cry
[01:18.73] She's a lone hearted mystic and she cant carry on
[01:24.56] When I'm there she's alright but then she's not when I'm gone
[01:33.97] Heaven knows that the answer, she's don't calling no one
[01:40.64] She's the way, her forsaken beauty for she's mine for the one
[01:47.03] And I lost her hesitating by temptation lest it runs
[01:53.36] But she don't holler me but I'm not there, I'm gone
[02:06.25] Now I'll cry tonight like I cried the night before
[02:12.29] And I'll feast on the highway but I'll dream about the door
[02:18.51] It's alone, she's forsaken by her fate with to tell
[02:24.84] "It don't have approximation", she is smiling fairly well
[02:34.21] Now when I'll teach that lady I was born to love her
[02:40.64] But she knows that the kingdom waits so high above her
[02:46.93] And I run by the race but it's not too fast or slow
[02:53.65] But I dont perceive her, I'm not there, I'm gone
[03:05.62] Well, it's all about confusion and I cry for her
[03:12.15] Well, I dont need anybody now beside me to tell
[03:18.42] And its all affirmation I receive but its not
[03:24.75] She's a lone-hearted beauty but she don't like the spot and she call
[03:37.06] Yes, she's gone like the rainbow that shined yesterday
[03:43.55] But now she's home beside me and I'd like her here to stay
[03:49.83] She's a lone forsaken beauty and it's don't trust anyone
[03:56.11] I wish I was beside her but I'm not there, I'm gone
[04:08.49] Well, it's too hard to stay here and I don't want to leave
[04:15.01] Its so bad but amusing when shes hard, too hard to leave
[04:21.30] Its a load, its a crime the way she haunt me around
[04:27.43] But she told, Wont you hate me? but it's down to make her crown
[04:37.92] Yes, I believe that its rightful, oh, I believe it in my mind
[04:44.08] I been told like I said when I before carry on the grind
[04:50.33] And shes on yet she told her like I said, Carry on
[04:56.54] I wish I was there to help her but I'm not there, Im gone
