You're out cold, but live on, now
an d the whole year round
let me explain myself, baby
I mean, I mean you're really out of sight
Out of sight, totally together
But you, you let me down now
You didn't even defend yourself
You didn't defend yourself
And you left me like, like...
Oh, no, I can't say this on record,
but I'm gonna try to write
This little old letter and,
and let you dig my little old rap
For what it's worth, for what it
Could mean to you and I both later on
All the little names that I give you
I sit here so aggravated and bewildered
No fussing, no fighting, no nothing
Of course, I found out later he was your friend,
And this much this morning I was able,
To understand that, after a very hectic night
You can dig the night was long
Now, I made it clear as possible,
as possibly I could say it
Baby, don't go to strangers
Now, it's true, it's true,
But it wouldn't be nothing
See now after 24 hours of suffering,
Why does my girl always have to be the
One to go south and go away
And leave me stringing on a tree,
I'm gonna be there when you come back
But I'm gonna give you this little old rap
So you can get this together,
Since you don't, you know,
Just to chew it but understand
I want you to know where I'm coming
Like, I have a right, you know,
to like, come on with this old
antagonizing rap because I feel a little down
But I think you're gonna make it all
Right 'cause you just together that way
can't you be conscious of like
Every moment in the day and the night?
And let all of our moods be for each other together,
And completely out of sight,
completely out of sight in every way
How can I explain it when we
Concentrate on being healthy
I know sometime that you aren't mellow, but
You know, uh, deep down inside
Well, at least not as mellow as I
hope you would be sometime
But you know how to do something
Now, I'm still, I'm still willing to,
Let's say help each other and
I don't care what it take
Even if we have to sleep in a tent
We are close together and that vibrations,
Your love and affection and the warmth
Can't you see that this opportunity
comes once in a lifetime?
Sometimes I wanna know why you
Past time things right before your eyes,
Well, and sometimes it just seem it's
impossible for you to see
You're, you're not blind,
stubborn, but that's all right
Those are the sweet things
And I wouldn't take nobody
You let my flame go out last night
I, I don't expect like for you
James Brown or you can sleep your man,
you can even sleep me, James Brown
'Cause that's who we're talking
We're not talking about John
Johnny Terry or somebody,
We're talking about me and you,
But I think just saying me and you makes it close,
