Nothing's Been the Same
(Chorus 2x)
Nothing's Been the same since you went away,
Even when the sun comes out my sky is gray,
I'm sipping bourbon in the A.M. I am not okay,
I just wish I had another chance to make her stay,
(Verse 1)
She hit me with the Honey it's not you it's me,
plus we're polar opposites, now we're flat out history,
How did this go wrong? why the hell my baby gone?
From my head to toe the pain I feel is super strong,
Did you plan to make a grown man cry?
So badly that his oldest son had to wipe tears from his eyes?
Is this what Phyllis Hyman felt like when she wrote that note?
I need some help because I've never felt this broken and alone,
(Chorus 2x)
Nothing's Been the same since you went away,
Even when the sun comes out my sky is gray,
I'm sipping bourbon in the A.M. I am not okay,
I just wish I had another chance to make her stay,
(Verse 2)
I called Brando on the phone while he was fixing cars,
Told him take my Nina fo I blow my brains to fricking Mars,
Thats what I get for always falling in love so hard,
Love is Like an A Train & I cant buy a metrocard,
Wake up everyday knowing there's no one for me,
Loneliness & pain seem to dominate me Endlessly,
Is this what Phyllis Hyman felt the night she took them pills?
Someone help me please, sadness just wont let me chill,
(Chorus4x)
Nothing's Been the same since you went away,
Even when the sun comes out my sky is gray,
I'm sipping bourbon in the A.M. I am not okay,
I just wish I had another chance to make her stay,
We're not in a Relationship,
Chalk scratches on blackboards everytime I hear you say that chick
I know I'm supposed to understand but falling in love quickly wasnt part of my plan,
Its so easy to say that he has a problem,
Multiplied by long distance instead of trying to solve him,
Playing it safe is cool but learning him is the key,
Especially when The Him in the situation is Me!
I admit I'm getting old but I'm not selfish or lame,
I've never been about collecting Black women's hearts for games,
I was born this way and I wasn't given a choice,
How can I not melt at the very sound of your voice?
All day and night I dream of our last kiss,
Spending way more time with you is my wish,
Any future of mine you're not involved in's invalid,
I want you to share your life and Wine market chicken salad,
(Chorus 2x)
Nothing's Been the same since you went away,
Even when the sun comes out my sky is gray,
I'm sipping bourbon in the A.M. I am not okay,
I just wish I had another chance to make her stay,
