I just came inside
'cause there weren't no place to hide
I know i did babe
And i'm your here today
Well you can see i was doing bad
Working hard right down the line
There's a whole strong bashful dream
Down to l.a.
Before you trust me
Like your brother
There's something in my head i want you to know
Oh! oh! oh! oh!
I've been destined
Adjust the power
Higher than a hawk's nest
I'm decked out like an eastern flower who
Needing more time to rest oh!
I had to rest and think again
Again
Well i remember
How you tried to explain
Remember how you felt the same as me
And you were smart to haven't
To remember
And i guess you came to me
'cause you needed to be free
You showing it to your lover
How once we loved each other
But before you take me
Before you love me
Like no other
There's something on my mind
I want you to know
I've been destined
Adjust the power
Higher than a hawk's nest
I'm decked out like an eastern flower who
Needing more time to rest oh!
I had to rest and think again
Again
I wanna warn you
Before you take me for your lover
There's something that if you don't know by now
You ought to know
I've been destined
Adjust the power
Higher than a hawk's nest
I'm decked out like an eastern flower who
Needing more time to rest oh!
I had to rest and think again
Again
Yes i did!
Oh! look out now!
