Richard Pryor Addresses A Tearful Nation(Album Version)

歌詞

Sometimes I think I've almost fooled myself Sometimes I think I've almost fooled myself-- Spreading out my wings Above us like a tree, Laughing now, out loud Almost like I was free I look at you as the thing I wanted most You look at me and it's like you've seen a ghost— I wear the face Of all this has cost: Everything you tried to keep away from me, Everything I took from you and lost Lights shine above me, they're like your eyes above the street Lights shine below me, they're like stars beneath my feet— I stood on your shoulders And I walked on my hands, You watched me while I tried to fall You can't bear to watch me land Take me away, carry me like a dove Take me away, carry me like a dove— Love me like you're lying Let me feel you near, Remember me for trying And excuse me while I disappear
