Lyrics:
had popped out of that torso and much to his surprise
he fell in love with it's eye
She was fifteen in a magazine what an odd place for her to be
Hoverin' by my suitcase
Tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
A heavy rain a fallin'
Seems I hear your voice callin'
"It's all right"
places in my mind
But I can dream
Until I go
Of smells that I don't recognize
And by the river
In Shanghai
The color of the sky
Is something
looks the same inside
So there's the corner that I sat on
The road I walked home in the rain
And there's the star I used to wish on
It all just
Comin' from the place they call the Spanish Moon
Well I stepped inside, and stood by the door
While a dark-eyed girl sang, and played the guitar
Hookers,
crying
Softly
In a dark and
Dangerous place
Sheæ?¯ imprisoned by no
Language
Fear grips her tiny face
In gods house she
Held a hostage
By a cruel
Home In The Rain
And There's The Star I Used To Wish On
It All Just Seems Like Yesterday
And I Stare Out This Dirty Window
As This World Goes Slowly By
cry
We will look so much in love to people passing by
So many changes since you've been away, and there's so many things to say
I wrote so many times
cry
We will look so much in love to people passing by
So many changes since you've been away, and there's so many things to say
I wrote so many times
California
LaBella Puerto Rico, wherever the fuck you from
Know what I'm sayin? Yeah
This story takes place, back in the South Bronx
Where at the age
took a thought, plus I brought Cut Creator along
Evened up with E-Love down with the Cool J. force
Symbolizin' in the rhymin' for the record of course
Looking through a wavy glass window
In this old place by the lake
In the colors of the falling leaves
I see nature makes no mistake
In
the light
The play games of magic in the night
Lately I've stayed with the lady from Denver
She said to come by for awhile
Took me on down to her
Babe Ruth, baseball hit over the wall
We're just a drop of rain over a waterfall
It's a hang on kinda ride, whispin' in through space and time,
I live out here in the wind and the pouring rain
Somewhere between 14th Avenue and Main
In the summer heat, the winter's freezing snow
You see I
I got something on my mind
I'm just a little bit depressed
I tried to blame it on the rain
But it was in my heart, I guess
I was feeling like
of swivelly and swervy.
I adore being dressed in something frilly
When my date comes to get me at my place.
Out I go with my Joe or John or Billy,
Like
and low places
And don't you fight me down
I'll stand firm, and give Jah all the thanks and praises
I don't expect to be justified, by these laws of men
change, slash get brain
Slash that nigga, slash make it rain
Slash tell summer girl, get the summer Z's
Know what's in the dungaree's, a hundred G's
Hey, I’m calling you back.
Oh, she’s been a bitch tonight!
And by bitch I mean this rain
No cabs, nowhere.
So I had to put on the wig,
Comin' from the place they call the Spanish Moon
Well I stepped inside, and stood by the door
While a dark-eyed girl sang, and played the guitar
Hookers,
There was led in the rain
He left a bullet behind
He left a bullet behind
Oh you never had a chance, did you? ROOFTOP JOE
Oh you never had a chance, did
Written by Chuck Jackson and Marvin Yancy
I have a special message that I would like to leave with you
It's not anything real big, you can stick it
gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing
In the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
For the disrobed faceless forms of no position
