[Intro]

Hand to my chest on the day that you left

And I couldn't feel my breath no more

Thinking what's next as I descend the steps

To the ship that I was meant to board

Call on the phone and it rings once or twice

Then you're sending me straight to voicemail

(Won't you be my lady, yeah)

Sleeping alone in the darkness of night

I got secrets I still got to tell


[Verse 1]

Aye, hold up, huh

Enough of that simp shit, I got some women I haven't mentioned No, I gave up my vision, just to go back and

Change my decision, oh

I made it my mission to kill the old me, I wouldn't miss him, no

If I could rewind and do it again, well that's what I'm wishing, yo

Down on my luck, no Vic Mensa

I got a little dilemma

All of these fakes with agendas

I keep away from these yenta

I keep away from the evil, or at least I try to

I'm not in the right mood, probably why I'm so rude


[Verse 2]

They do not see I'm a boy, they only look at the man (yeah, yeah)

I got some problems of mine, I know they won't understand

My faith is bubbling down, life threw a wrench in my plans

I never faced this alone, I only hopped up and ran (yeah, yeah)

God, it's Your child, I need help and I know

(All my life, I run out of time)

That I messed up a million times on my own

And I know I don't deserve Your love and support

And I wish that I had told myself to abort but I didn't

(Things I can't say, floating away)

So now I'm just stuck with decisions I made in the heat

Of the moment, precision is something that I didn't use

Really, all that I know is that I'm needing You


[Bridge]

Can't teach an old dog new tricks

I guess they never lied about that

I hit your phone half past six

And made it on to your crib stat

It's raining in the Amazon

It's raining in the rainforest, find shelter

(Won't you be my lady, yeah)

It's raining in the Amazon

I know that I won't stay for long


[Verse 3]

I love you more than the moon loves the sun, you know

How you can see it at the crack of dawn, you know

100 baby, lady, you're the one, I know

Don't need to play my games, already won, you know

Hanging around me, that's gotta mean something, something

Crawling on my bed, and you got on nothing, nothing

Don't gotta speak 'cause you just know what I mean, I mean

There's no one else, you the only on my team, my team


[Verse 4]

Rainfall coming down but I don't feel it when I'm with you, no

I just left your house right now, but I already miss you though

(Won't you be my lady, yeah)

Sky is dark with clouds but I can see the sun shining through

Life is yellow now, and I haven't been seeing blue

Solved the puzzle, 'cause our pieces are a perfect fit

I talk of days of long ago, well you don't know the half of it

(Won't you be my lady, yeah)

I just got a question for you while I got you here

Won't you be my lady, I was foggy long but now I'm clear


[Outro]

All my life, I run out of time

Things I can't say, floating away

I'm running to your love

I'm running to the one

(Won't you be my lady, yeah)

You're way too good for me

Rain falling on the trees
