Rags To Rufus

Things have been goin' wrong long enough to know
Everything is right
Been walkin' in the dark long enough to know
Finally seen the light
Been losin' long enough to know when i've finally won
And even a blind man can tell when he's walkin' in the sun

I've cried enough tears to know
This feeling's called a smile
Been bottom rung long enough to know
When i'm doin' it in style
Been run long to know
There's no more need to run
And even a blind man can tell when he's walkin' in the sun

Oh, the wind is at my back
And i'm sailin' on a ship that's overdue
Well i've blown so many chances
I ain't gonna blow this one with you
I've seen enough bad times to know
Good times have begun
And even a blind man can tell when he's walkin' in the sun
And even a blind man can tell when he's walkin' in the sun

Here we are alone in this old smokin' room again
If your highness is your pleasure it's alright
Cause there's an extra added goodness
In my heart for you tonight
If there's any such a thing as god
He must be here tonight

Ain't sayin' i'm right
Ain't sayin' i'm wrong
Ain't sayin' there's any such a thing as short or long
It seems you been here many times before
It's too beautiful but true
And i'm glad i got the chance tonight
To share my now with you

I used to be locked in a closet and i couldn't find the key
Used to be you'd look my way but not see me
But it's happiness to know that from yourself you cannot hide
And that here's where i am and it's you that's by my side

Ain't sayin' i'm right
Ain't sayin' i'm wrong
Ain't sayin' there's any such a thing as short or long
It seems you been here many times before
It's too beautiful but true
And i'm glad i got the chance tonight
To share my now, share my now
Oh baby baby ?oh yeah

So glad i gotcha spend some time
Spend some time glad i gotcha baby (repeat)

So glad i gotcha share my life
Share my life glad i gotcha baby (repeat)

Could it be that he's interested
Or am i just wanting it be so
Do i dare speak to him
Or should i let the moment go

Forget this hunger inside
Forget this hunger inside
Should i let the feelin' flow
Should i just let it flow
Ain't nothin' but a maybe ?.
Oh and baby, i sure would like to know

Could it be he's just friendly
And that's nothing to get excited about
On the other hand he could be answering
The good vibrations i'm sendin' out
Well i just don't know
What i really see in
Should i make a move
Or keep on daydreamin'
Ain't nothin' but a maybe
Oh and maybe baby, i sure would like to know

Wanna know ?wanna know ?

Could it be that he's interested
Or should i let the moment go and

Forget this hunger inside
Forget this hunger inside
Should i let the feelin' flow
Should i just let it flow
Ain't nothin' but a maybe ?.
Oh and baby, i sure would like to know

Repeat

Forget this hunger inside
Forget this hunger inside
Should i let the feelin' flow
Should i just let it flow
Ain't nothin' but a maybe
Ain't nothin' but a maybe

Why is it i'm always chasin' after you
Why can't it just be you that chases me
Look through my eyes
Can you see me
Searchin' with nothin' in sight
Touch with my hands can't you feel me
Reachin' for you in the night

I been trying hard to keep you satisfied
Can't say i haven't tried ? bet your life
Change all my bitter to sweet love
Change all my darkness to light
Surrender the love you're concealing
My love will make it alright

Look through my eyes
Can't you see me
Touch with my hands
Can't you feel me
Change all my bitter to sweet love
Make it right

Baby i'm in love and i just can't stay
Besides my love won't compromise or be denied

Repeat

Look through my eyes
Can you see me
Searchin' with nothin' in sight
Touch with my hands can't you feel me
Reachin' for you in the night
Change all my bitter to sweet love
Change all my darkness to light
Surrender the love you're concealing
My love will make it alright
