[Verse 1]
GBaby, I'll be loving you Emlong after the rain
Has Amwashed away your memory and Dwatered down the pain
I Gknow that I've been playing in the Emstreets a little late
I've Amdone some foolish shit, I know I've Dmade a few mistakes

But GI don't wanna be your Emyesterday man
So Ambaby, could you let me Dback in
[Chorus]
I'm so Glonely
Not Emonly when you leave Amme, Oh DOh  (x2)
[Verse 2]
The Gstreet's a little colder when you're Emall up on my mind
I Amcan't keep on pretending that I'm Dtruly satisfied

We were supAmposed to be mad lovers, not just Dtricks of the trade
I'm in a Grage, but I can't let my Emfeelings show
There's more to Amlife than falling hard and waking Dup all alone, ya know?
GYou used to let me know Emlife wasn't hard
Now I'm Amscared by the lies that's been Dtold to my heart
Cause Glife ain't nothing but a Embirth and a death
And I'm Amstuck in the middle, still Dstruggling for breath
[Verse 1]
GBaby, I'll be loving you Emlong after the rain
Has Amwashed away your memory and Dwatered down the pain
I Gknow that I've been playing in the Emstreets a little late
I've Amdone some foolish shit, I know I've Dmade a few mistakes
