Matt Simons – With you Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
Honest where I start from
I try and impart my wisdom
A combination of truth and fear
That’s the way it’s always been
My father and his before him
At times we hurt the …
[Verse 1:]
Honest where I start from
I try and impart my wisdom
A combination of truth and fear
That’s the way it’s always been
My father and his before him
At times we hurt the …
[Verse 1]
Oh, pity me
I’m so alone and so blue
My friends have all gone away
Their friendliness too
[Pre-Chorus]
It was I on my own
With no need to belong
And I wanted to die
That’s when …
[Verse 1]
Got some money, got some cash
I’m rich and now I’m sad
And I wonder if I’m sad about the money that I have
Got some boats on my plane
At the hotel …
[Intro]
Yeah
Polishin’ a goddamn sword, you know what I’m sayin’?
Polishin’ a sword (Uh, uh, uh, uh)
Concrete Family, Concrete Industries, Concrete Boys up, always, never down
(And this beat from Cash, not from …
When the only sound in the empty street
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
That belong to a lonesome cop
I open shop
When the moon so long has been gazing down
On …
This one goes out to you and yours, worldwide1
I say, hey, I be gone today
But I be back around the way2
Seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know3
But I know one thing that I love you, baby girl
I love you, I love you, I love you4
I’ve been a lot of places all around the way
I’ve seen a lot of joy, and I’ve seen a lot of pain5
But I don’t want to write a love song for the world
I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl6
Junkies7 on the corner, always calling my name
And the kids on the corner playing ghetto games8
When I saw you getting down, girl, I hoped it was you
And when I looked into your eyes, I knew it was true9
I say, hey, I be gone today
But I be back around the way
Seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing that I love you, baby girl
I love you, I love you, I love you
Now I’m not a highly metaphysical man10
But I know when the stars are aligned you can
Bump into a person in the middle of the road
Look into their eyes, and you suddenly know11
Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
Dancing in the night in the middle of June12
My momma told me don’t lose you
‘Cause the best luck I had was you13
I say, hey, I be gone today
But I be back around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing that I love you, baby girl
I love you, I love you, I love you
And I say, rocking in the dance, hall moving with you
I say, hey momma, hey momma, close to you
Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
I say, hey, trippa, hey, trippa, got to shoot14
Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
I say, hey momma, close to you
Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
I say, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
Hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
My momma told me don’t lose you
‘Cause the best luck I had was you
And I know one thing that I love you15
I say, hey, I be gone today
But I’ll be back around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
I say, hey, I be gone today
But I’ll be back around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing that I love you, baby girl
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
I say, hey papa, hey papa, hey momma, hey momma
Rocking in the dance hall, moving with you
Come on, hey papa, hey papa, come to shoot
(Hey mama, hey mama)16
