The Vault - Old Friends 4 Sale lyrics

It took 5 women 2 getcha off of my mind
It took 5 months, a plenty good wasted time
But it just took 5 minutes when I saw your face again
2 fall in love all over, I guess with U I'll never win

March was a cold one in more ways than one
Went down 2 the nightclub lookin' 4 the sun
Lookin' 4 a light that could brighten up a day
That's been darker than a hole since U went away

What's a single woman with no real man 2 do?
Tryin' 2 raise your kid when he couldn't give a damn about U
All my cares and troubles dive right off my window sill
Everytime I pop my little pill

A pixie does my laundry and the universe my will
All my cares and troubles dive right off my window sill
All my cares and troubles dive right off my window sill
Everytime I pop my little pill

Hey!

What a night, what a city
Girl, U sho' is lookin' pretty
Tryin' 2 catch a cool one
Checkin' 4 a little fun

Sarah, oh Sarah, honey, is that U?
Is that U, baby?

Got yo' good shoes on
Ribbon in your hair
That skirt ain't talkin' 2 long
I can see your underwear

Sarah, oh Sarah, honey, is that U?
I think it's U, baby

Hey!

Girl, I hate 2 be the one

Is it me or did the room just get darker?
Is it me or did I just lay down and die?
Is this a dream or did the world just crumble at my very feet?
How in heaven will I ever be alright?

There is lonely and there is lonely
And then there is how I feel right now
Perhaps only Cain when he'd slain his brother
Could ever come close 2 knowing how ... yeah

Another Friday night
Another tired line

Baby, U sure look good,
Hey baby, what's your sign?
How many ask 4 your number
Before they even know your name?
How many out there tired of playing
This silly o-old time game?

Hey, and when the lights go down
And it's justa U 2
It's when U and your lover, yeah
Do what [... wanna] do

That's when U feel the heat
Hotter than July

Extraordinary
The love U make 2 me itç£â€” some kind of scary
I would B a fool 2 leave U 4 I was born 2 love U
This is true

Extraordinary
The way U make me feel
Iç£Å½ so very glad itç£â€” real
And not a dream
Even though it seems I am dreaming
People try 2 break us up
Valentines a little rough
But we survived ç¢Â¿os we had a love

The sun set in my heart this evenin'
Cuz an old friend of mine got lost in the jive
Little did she know, when U're stuck in the snow
Nobody gets out alive

Tears fall gently in my garden
As I wait in vain 4 my sweet baby 2 call
I guess what my own brother told me was true
He had been with my sweet baby and she never really loved me at all

Night fell so dark this evenin'

Performed by Prince
Spoke 2 me
I can't believe it but she spoke 2 me
Close 2 me
I never thought I'd get her close 2 me
Now the moon and the sun belong 2 me
All my wildest hopes were crazy dreams
(They seem more like reality)

Fantasy
This girl fulfills my every fantasy
She must be
Specially designed by heaven just 4 me
(Just for me)
My friends look at her, they see mystery

Don't look now but there's another rocky road
Another heavy "Why?" of the much 2 heavy, heavy load
But 2day I'm gonna face it, yeah, cuz I'm sick of dealin' any other way
Nobody said the race was fair but I'm gonna keep runnin' just the same

2day, 2day is the first day of the rest of my life

Don't look now but here comes another heartbreak

{crowd noise}
Mmm-mmm!
Oooh-wee!
Fellas would U look at that thing
Have U ever...?

U just got back from Paris
U probably went to buy some clothes
U're on your way to Nell's in New York
Gonna meet who? Heaven knows

But it ain't about where U're comin'
It ain't about where U go
It ain't about who U've been with
'Cuz it ain't about who U know
