You wouldn't leave my mind I used to be so sad about it Sucking my blood dry Now baby I'm just mad about it Tried to read your lines Thought I could see it in your palm and know it Wasting my own time You had a funny way to love and show it And I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong Down in my low rich world That I was singing to from heavy curtains The problems in my curls You had to chase em down and know for certain Said "It's a bitch now, girl You gotta watch me take and learn to work it It ain't no lucky pink pearl You gotta hustle, make it all look perfect" Well go on, baby go on, I'm listening go on High on a mountain in my mind I would turn my head and I would find You screaming into the wind Trying to tell me again, "Just go I'm not what you want in a man, no no" You tried to hold my heels But you said freedom, and I held you to it Then we made a deal That I would sell my soul and put you through it Now I know how it feels To dream I shot you dead and no one knew it Burning all my wheels, far enough away to really do it And now I'm gone, yeah I'm gone, I'm gone, long gone High on a mountain in my mind I would turn my head and I would find You screaming into the wind Trying to tell me again, "Just go I'm not what you want in a man, no no"
