lyrics

It was morning | as I'm tryna fix my coffee I hear the phone ring | a woman’s voice saying how you doing Mr. Sampson | in a long time, it sounds like good news | set the table | and I'll be there as long as I'm able | till we’re old and grey or disabled | your beauty, lights up the room | in the beginning, it feels like you cant shake em | oh, don’t waste a minute | tryna chase what you couldn't have, theres good love in them kisses | you just gotta open your eyes | no one told me bout the give and takes of being in love | no one told me that you bleed before you find the one | no one told me how to love before I'm dead and gone | I had to learn it in my own | we got the the universe working, overtime | whoa, and we ain't got no qualms | we loose life everyday, but we brought life into ours | cause I’v been two weeks no job | tryna get out of bed for me has been a full time job | I can't keep up with credit cards but I wont stop | my baby, just got good news | whoa in the beginning, it feels like you cant shake em | oh, don’t waste a minute | and tryna chase what you couldn't have, theres good love in them kisses | you just gotta open your eyes | you just gotta open your eyes
