Robbery lyrics

Did he catch my eye
Well, is the sun up in the sky

And ain't I a woman-say yes I am
He made me shake it, he made me
break it
When I didn't wanna break it, he's
a playboy
Pinstripe suits and a rap that
wouldn't quit
Carte Blanche attitude-say baby
this is it
Too raw, come to Z Casbah
And he isn't even French, he's just
a playboy
So fine, you know the kind

Standing on the corner of rhythm and blues
A Valentino smile gave me my first clue
Tell me girl, I wonder can you spare me some time
He said, I mean more than just your nine to five

Love at first sight I thought so
Or maybe it was the clock
That led me to his passion
It was not "pillow talk"

When he taught me to spell disaster
I hollered someone save me

Loving, fresh as the morning dew
Sunrise talks just to you
Nocturnal night one last adieu
I'm coming, I'm going
I'm swimming, I'm flowing
I'm right here beside you babe
Passion was not the answer
Was not the question
Yet it was all of this and more
Your river and heartlight
The ebb in the tide at night
The do, in the do me babe

I'm dreaming of, the one I love

Late night interaction on the telephone
You called me up to tell me that you were alone
Talkin' 'bout the powers that could set you free
I rushed right over with my newfound energy

The knock on the door seemed unfamiliar to you
Do I detect a surprise or two
You said something came up and I would have to go
I look over your shoulder it's a girl I know

No circumspect
I won't forget

Love is just a one-way street
If I'm lost without you
Love is not a two-way street
If I can't be glad I've found you
Love can't hold me tight on a sleepless night
On the strength of who you are
Love can't compensate for the fool I've been
To let it go this far
Love is when you put me back together
When I can't pick up the pieces
Love is the fix it man who'll do the best he can

Society
Who's to say who loves you
And on the colors of love
Are we to be schooled
Society
Our minds, bodies, and souls will meet tolerance
Society
Put an end to ignorance

Ask your momma can she feel it
Does she know about my love
Does she know you got my heart in your hand
Ask your momma will she cry when she sees
This 14K band of gold, oh, baby

Ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...

If I could paint a picture
Of the love I have inside
It would paint all of you and all of me
Without no thought of pride
Then maybe you would know
Exactly all the things I feel
Not just a maybe
But baby, I'm for real

'Cause I've been wishin' on the stars and hopin'
Just as it shoots across the sky
Searchin' for the so-called answers

Late last night I couldn't stop the tears from falling
Seems like I was crying all night long
Me baby gone away and left me blue
And there's not a lot that me can do
No there's not a lot that me can do

Foolish pride to think that I could just forget it
Knowing that the need would still be here
Lonely, lonely room, I hold my pillow close to me
Just an empty bed of memories

My baby's fine
He always keeps me guessing
But never keeps me guessing about his love
He's had more girls than Howard
Hughes had money
and you may think it funny when I say he loves me only
and who are you to say what he did when I was not around
just because I fell in love with Casanova Brown
Act 2 scene 5 is my command performance
my name is clairvoyance and it's all too clear
