StooShe - Waterfalls (Acoustic) lyrics

[Originally by TLC] A lonely mother gazining out of the window Staring at her son that she just can't touch If at any time he's in a jam she'll be by his side But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much But all the praying just ain't helping at all Cuz he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble So he goes out and he makes his money The best way he knows how Another body layin cold in the gutter Listen to me Don't go chasing waterfalls Please stick to the rivers And the lakes that you're used to I know that you're gonna have it Your way or nothing at all But I think you're moving too fast Little precious has a natural obsession For temptation but he just can't see She gives him loving that his body Can't handle but all he can say Is “baby is good to me” One day he goes and take a glimpse in the mirror But he doesn't recognize his own face His health is fading and he doesn't know why 3 letters took him to his final resting place… Y'all don't you hear me Don't go chasing waterfalls Please stick to the rivers And the lakes that you're used to I know that you're gonna have it Your way or nothing at all But I think your moving too fast [2x] Come on I seen a rainbow yesterday But to many storms have come and gone Leaving a trace Of not one God giving ray Is it because My life is ten shades of grey I pray all ten fade away Seldom praise him for the seven days And like his promise is true Only my faith can undo The many chances I blew To bring my life to anew Clear and blue and unconditional Skies have dried the tears from my eyes No more lonely cries Don't go chasing waterfalls Please stick to the rivers And the lakes that you're used to I know that you're gonna have it Your way or nothing at all But I think your moving too fast [2x] [faded]
