If you see me running through some streets in life
Baby it’s alright, don’t even pay me no mind
I’m just looking for, for my yesterday
So my only memories, I watch them fade and fade away
The night will come and the dawn will fall
Put that falling bird, put it back in it’s next
And the bird would sing, sing out loud
Whoa, sing out loud, throw whispers
I always do something to make her cry
Like yeah, tear her castle down
And I know it’s like lollipops, lollipops swirling through the rain
Pressed again our gentle minds
If you see me running through some streets in life
Baby it’s alright, don’t even pay me no mind
I’m just looking for, for my yesterday
So my only memories, I watch them fade and fade away
Whoa, sweet baby mine,
What ever happened to those good times
Sweet, sweet baby mine
What ever happened to those good times
People like to know that, I’m not by myself, I’m not alone
Not sure many people know this, but this song is actually a re-make of an earlier Womack track of the same name from an album called "So Many Rivers". Give it a search, it has the same lyrics. I actually really prefer this version. Amazing the power lyrics can have when they are made the focus!
