Again Drowning
It's raining out & I'm standing out,
thinking It's been years now,
I know it ain't no turning It around,
because she don't feel me like I feel her,
again drowning trying to catch my breath,
standing in the rain no stress release,
everything's a peach if you see it,
gold or It's silver,
don't turn around till she's with you,
this is the way it's suppose to be,
dreaming of a dream,
nobody can catch you,
because you in between,
again drowning drowning again,
rain beats heavy now on your head,
you got a umbrella with rips in it,
you can't believe it,
she's not into you,
again drowning baby,
been so long so many years,
I can't stand it but live on.
