City streets and rolling cars, The only sound you can hear. But you know you might be wrong, Just look right over here. Back up against the wall, Hands on the bottle. You're gonna walk on by, Then he cries you gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta.
Take that sinner boy home, Wrap him up, keep him warm, He won't do no harm.
Take him home right away, He's got no place to stay, Let him walk right inside your home.
Go on and ask him his name,
Let him try and explain, What in the world done him wrong.
Tell the man, lift him up, Take away the paper cup. One more inside him won't do him no good. Sinner boy,
Take that sinner boy home, Wrap him up, keep him warm, He won't do no harm.
Take him home right away, He's got no place to stay, Let him walk right inside your home.

I'm not awake yet, I haven't opened my eyes. But I haven't been late yet, I'm gonna to be on time. For today's the day that you are coming back. And I can't wait to see you materialize.
How much can I take now before I break inside? How long will it take now before I realize, That I can't live without you by my side, And nothing else will keep me satisfied?

Baby I no longer wanna be, just a thorn in your side. Tell me what you gave me baby, and I will give you back.
The troubles you gave me, gonna wrap em' up in a box, Tie em' up with string, send em' back to you, They no longer mean a thing to me.
Better get used to bein' my used to be.
Baby I no longer wanna be, just a cushion for your pride. Here's my fastback baby, this man's got a ride away.
Before you make me change my mind, I'll be gone before you notice, that I'm not around. You'll look everywhere baby, but I just won't be found.
Better get used to bein' my used to be.
I used to be the hands of your clock baby, But I always knew in time. I'd no longer be the key to your lock baby, And you would change your mind. Owww...

Baby I remember a time when you, really used to try. But now-a-days baby, you can't even look me in the eye. Your love is drifting with the tide.
Well I ain't gonna blame you, if you ain't gonna blame me. I'll just move on down, I'm sure that you'll agree.
Better get used to bein' my used to be.
Well I ain't gonna blame you, if you ain't gonna blame me. I'll just move on down the line, I'm sure that you'll agree.
A whole lot of people talking, Trying to make sense. Seems everybody's living on a barbed wire fence, Whole lotta people too proud to call, 'Cause it won't get no help at all.
Everybody's waiting for the good news day, But it seems so far away. Wonder if it's ever gonna come, 'Cause the way it's been, The restless one.
Lot of things have gotta change, If it's not already too late. But it is worth the wait, So, let's not hang our heads, The light will shine one day.
Lot of things have gotta change, If it's not already too late. But it is worth the wait,
So, let's not hang our heads, The light will show through yet.
Yeahh...
Now listen baby, and listen well, I've got only one thing to tell. Don't you worry about people telling lies, They're only catching flies.
Yeahhh..
A whole lotta people talking, Trying to make sense. Seems everybody's living on a barbed wire fence, Whole lotta people too proud to call, 'Cause it won't get no, 'Cause it won't get no, 'Cause it won't get no, Help at all, Help at all.

Should've learnt my lesson long long time ago Should've learnt my lesson long long time ago Bored like a mule i've always learnt my lesson slow
Should have listened taken my friends advice Should have listened to my best friends and to my eyes They said "you must be prepared to lose" If you choose to chance the dice
Well i'm feeling about as tired as a bad pair of shoes When you don't fit then you know it's time to move But if you had my troubles you'd be cryin too
My first mistake was when i thought that you'd be true My first mistake was when i thought that you'd be true now i realise that was a foolish thing to do
There's a light that shines on me ever since you came to me It won't go,it won't go away Now i know that you're gonna stay Now that i know your love means so much more to me now
Come here now baby Now look what you've done to me now I don't pray for what could have been I feel i'm flyin naturally
I can fly but i won't go away In your sky that's where i wanna stay
Come here now baby
Now look what you've done to me now If i don't show would you know where to look for me now
I do not stare absently Counting waves up on the sea Now i know where i wanna stay There ain't no hard decisions to make
Come here now baby Now look what you've done to me now If i don't show would you know who to send for me now
