A friend of mine, she cries at night And she calls me on the phone Sees babies everywhere she goes And she wants one of her own
She’s waited long enough she says And still he can’t decide Pretty soon she’ll have to choose And it tears her up inside
She is scared, Scared to run out of time
I see my folks are getting on And I watch their bodies change I know they see the same in me And it makes us both feel strange
No matter how you tell yourself It’s what we all go through Those lines are pretty hard to take When they’re staring back at you
Oh Oh Oh, scared you’ll run out of time
When did the choices get so hard With so much more at stake Life gets mighty precious When there’s less of it to wa-a-a-aste
Mmm-m-m-m-m-m
Mmmmmmm, scared you’ll run out of time
Just when I thought I’d had enough And all my tears were shed No promise left unbroken There were no painful words unsaid
Yo-o-o-u came along and showed me I could leave it all behind You opened up my heart again And then much to my surprise
I found love, baby, love in the nick of time (Love in the nick of time) I found love darlin’, love in the nick of time (Love in the nick of time) I found love baby, love in the nick of time

Lyrics
I have seen, seen it all in paper dreams Watched it all full on the screen But never understood I have heard, have heard you speak a million words Now you’re talking to me first Never thought you would
Oh, my, my, you just took me by surprise And I can’t believe my eyes Oh, I must be seeing blind Oh no, my, you are too good to be all mine Now I’m looking in your eyes Oh, I must be seeing blind
I was young, my heart was always on the run But you made lovin’ fun I never knew it could be, ey I see you from a different point of view Feel it’s too good to be true I found my missing piece
Oh, my, my, you just took me by surprise And I can’t believe my eyes Oh, I must be seeing blind Oh no, my, you are too good to be all mine Now I’m looking in your eyes Oh, I must be seeing blind Oh, no
Oh, my, my When I look into your eyes It’s a sight I can’t describe Oh, I must be seeing blind
Oh, my, my, you just took me by surprise And I can’t believe my eyes Oh, I must be seeing blind Oh no, my, you are too good to be all mine Now I’m looking in your eyes Oh, I must be seeing blind Oh, I must be seeing blind

Tryna rain, tryna rain on the thunder Tell the storm I’m new I’m a wall, come and march on the regular Painting white flags blue
Lord forgive me, I’ve been running Running blind in truth I’ma rain, I’ma rain on this bitter love Tell the sweet I’m new
I’m telling these tears, go and fall away, fall away May the last one burn into flames
Freedom Freedom I can’t move Freedom, cut me loose Singin’, freedom Freedom Where are you? ‘Cause I need freedom, too I break chains all by myself Won’t let my freedom rot in hell Hey! I’ma keep running ‘Cause a winner don’t quit on themselves
I’ma wade, I’ma wave through the waters Tell the tide, “Don’t move” I’ma riot, I’ma riot through your borders Call me bulletproof
Lord forgive me, I’ve been runnin’ Runnin’ blind in truth I’ma wade, I’ma wave through your shallow love Tell the deep I’m new
I’m telling these tears, go and fall away, fall away May the last one burn into flames
Freedom Freedom I can’t move Freedom, cut me loose Singin’, freedom Freedom Where are you? ‘Cause I need freedom, too I break chains all by myself Won’t let my freedom rot in hell Hey! I’ma keep running ‘Cause a winner don’t quit on themselves
Ten Hail Marys, I meditate for practice Channel nine news tell me I’m movin’ backwards Eight blocks left, death is around the corner Seven misleadin’ statements ’bout my persona Six headlights wavin’ in my direction Five-o askin’ me what’s in my possession Yeah I keep runnin’, jump in the aqueducts Fire hydrants and hazardous Smoke alarms on the back of us But mama don’t cry for me, ride for me Try for me, live for me Breathe for me, sing for me Honestly guidin’ me I could be more than I gotta be Stole from me, lied to me, nation hypocrisy Code on me, drive on me Wicked, my spirit inspired me Like yeah, open correctional gates in higher desert Yeah, open our mind as we cast away oppression Yeah, open the streets and watch our beliefs And when they carve my name inside the concrete I pray it forever reads
Freedom Freedom I can’t move Freedom, cut me loose Singin’, freedom! Freedom! Where are you? ‘Cause I need freedom, too I break chains all by myself Won’t let my freedom rot in hell Hey! I’ma keep running ‘Cause a winner don’t quit on themselves
What you want from me? Is it truth you seek? Oh, Father, can you hear me? What you want from me? Is it truth you seek? Oh, Father, can you hear me? Hear me out”I had my ups and downs But I always find the inner strength to pull myself up I was served lemons, but I made lemonade”

Found the truth beneath your lies And true love never has to hide (True love never has to hide) I’ll trade your broken wings for mine (Trade your broken wings for mine) I’ve seen your scars and kissed your crime (Seen your scars and kissed your crime)
So many people that I know, they just tryna touch ya Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya Give you some time to prove that I can trust you again I’m gonna kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya
All night long Love, all night long Sweet love, all night long Sweet love, all night long All I wanna, ain’t no other We together, I remember Sweet love, all night long
Our love was stronger than your pride Beyond your darkness, I’m your light, oh If you get deep, you touch my mind (If you get deep, you touch my mind) Baptize your tears and dry your eyes (Baptize your tears and dry your eyes)
So many people I know that they just tryna touch ya Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya Give you some time to prove that I can trust you again I’m gonna kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya
All night long Love, all night long Sweet love, all night long Sweet love, all night long All I wanna, ain’t no other We together, I remember Sweet love, all night long
They say true love’s the greatest weapon To win the war caused by pain (pain) But every diamond has imperfections But my love’s too pure to watch it chip away (chip a-, chip a-, chip away) Boy, nothing real can be threatened True love breathes salvation back into me With every tear came redemption And my torturer became my remedy
So many people I know that they just tryna touch ya Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya Give you some time to prove that I can trust you again I’m gonna kiss up, and rub up, and feel up Kiss up, and rub up, and feel up on ya
All night long Love, all night long Sweet love, all night long Sweet love, all night long All I wanna, ain’t no other We together, I remember Sweet love, all night long
