Lyrics:
somebody else in place of me.
Goodbye romance, it couldn't last somehow,
I had my chance, but it's all over now.
I never thought that she could pass me
And if I had the chance
Id never let you go
Just want you to know
[Chorus]
Lay down lay me down
Lay me down
Lay down burden
How many things I
how we hear the sound
And we're on to another one in due time
Someday fell on a Monday by chance
It had to happen given the circumstance
And we're
else in place of me
Goodbye romance, it couldn't last somehow
I had my chance but it's all over now
I never thought that she could pass me by
There
self
All by my self all by my self
How many nights I had a
Dream about me waking up
Up on the other side I'll see
You when we making up
Then I open up
Get on your horse and ride away."
"Oh father you will surely die
If I don't take the chance to try
And pay the price and not take your advice.
For
Yeah, yeah
Here it is
She caught me by surprised I must say
Cause I never had seen such a pretty face
With such a warm and beautiful smile
It wasn't
been to Berlin
Never got to purge my demons
Never been standing by the wall
With the guns shooting over our heads
I see the wall and the guns shooting
like this but I do
By now I figured you had all your numbers changed
It's been at least a year since I called you up to say
We need to talk I got
mind
Listen, my father didn't know the meaning of work
He disrespected mama, and treated us like dirt
I left home, seekin' a job that I never did find
in berlin?
I don't live in berlin.
Where do you live?
I live in texas.
Texas?
Texas.
Oh I see, lyndon johnson lives in texas too, does he not?
I know,
it's the stars
They're surely on my side
I've never been so satisfied
By love before
For all the times I've tried
These beginnings could mean more
I used to get drunk all by myself
I wanted to be somebody else
And I had a mask inside my mind
That I hid behind
I'm on the point of no return
I
There's always somebody staring at her
Yeah, I know she hung the moon
I'm the one that held the ladder
Now if you had half a chance
You'd probably
never, never to part.
What moments divine, what rapture serene,
Till clouds came along to disperse the joys we had tasted,
And now when I hear people
locked inside
Now's your chance to save your hide
Gentlemen, I did not know
It's a crime to steal the show
Tell us how the art was taken
If you want
Still rectifying, straightening things out
I know what a good feelin' you're never in doubt
Sometimes I'm by myself- feelin' alone
I just look around
and a half
Before I left I stopped by to see my nigga 21 in the studio
He had two of his kids with him right in the studio, that's when I knew
You a stand
it's the stars
They're surely on my side
I've never been so satisfied
By love before
For all the times I've tried
These beginnings could mean more
Should've known by the way you pass me by
There was something in your eyes
And it wasn't right
I should've walked but I never had the chance
so good
Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change
Once a whore, you're nothing more, I'm sorry that'll never change
And about
a sovereign of me
I'll take a trip
Cruising slowly on a sinking ship
It's weird what we're used to
Conditioned to skip through
And never take a look
that if I
I had the chance, I'd let you know that I understand
I've let you go
I don't need you by my side I think by now I'm doin' fine
Myself,
and oops-a-daisy!
It's a guest
It's a guest
Sakes alive, well I'll be blessed
Wine's been poured and thank the Lord
I've had the napkins freshly pressed
