Lee Fields & The Expressions – Stone Angel lyrics

Can't believe this note she left on the door
Telling me she doesn't live here anymore
I can't believe a whole lot of things are taking place
I wish she'd come back
Damn. This is messed up now
My boys comin' over, all the furniture gone, No T.V
What imma tell em'? Hell I'll think of something..
But right now I gotta shed some tears

[Chorus]
I wanna love you like I did before
Stone Angel
I want to treat you better than before
Stone Angel
No no

I will work all night, sleep all day
Sing those songs, they all would say "I love you baby"
Come home to a house with a note on the door
Telling me you're not here anymore
Oh baby I can't stand it

Wherever you are
Here, near or far
There's a man at home waiting by the door
Hoping to hear the sound of your keys
Baby thats all I'm waiting for

[Chorus]
I want to love you like I did before
Stone Angel
I want to treat you better than before
Stone Angel

No man's an island that you cast me off, oh baby
And when you sent the stones
I knew you were doin' it just to test me baby

I will buy and sell, borrow and steal
But after all I'm broke and I'll deal
Stone Angel
Now I'm running along as fast as I can
Chasing our love as long as I can
For you and me

Because I believe in you and me
It's so clear baby, why can you see?
I don't have you anymore
But you still, you still got me

As I was saying.. uhh..
Why won't you just come on home in our living room and talk?
Talk like people do
Ok say what you got to say imma listen..
Now you finished
Now can I say what I got to say?

[Chorus]
I wanna love you like I did before
Stone Angel
I want to treat you better than before
Stone Angel

Come on home
