I throw it on the table
And you keep on runnin' away
I don't know if I'm able
To say what I need to say
Yet you used to be (?)
I can tell by cold
Runnin' out of daylight
I don't mind talking through the night
If you mind the babies
And I don't mind my job
Why can't we get things right?
You say you knew a man
Who used to make you feel
Like the only colored flower
In an open ended field
I know there was that day
You would not believe
I would stop my prayer (?)
But you were there for me
You reach up for Jesus
And I reach out for you
You throw it on the table
I run my fingers through
And though there were the days
That I would not believe
That I could be so blind
Cause you were everywhere (?)
And you keep on runnin' away
I don't know if I'm able
To say what I need to say
Yet you used to be (?)
Runnin' out of daylight
I don't mind talking through the night
If you mind the babies
And I don't mind my job
Why can't we get things right?
Who used to make you feel
Like the only colored flower
In an open ended field
You would not believe
I would stop my prayer (?)
But you were there for me
You reach up for Jesus
And I reach out for you
You throw it on the table
I run my fingers through
That I would not believe
That I could be so blind
Cause you were everywhere (?)
