irene reid - didn't we lyrics

[spoken intro]
well, baby
i guess this is a wind+up this time
i’m really going
and i’m not coming back anymore
oh, i know i said it before
but you came all the way to phoenix to get me and you worried me half to death
you said, “baby, i love you, i need you”
“just come back home one more time and i promise you that i’ll never, never hurt you again”
but you lied
you know that you lied
i wasn’t back for two days and you went into your same old bag all over again
you know, baby, the heart can only stand so much
and after ten long years, i think i’ve had it
you know, you’re busy
you’re real busy, this ass has got you busy
you’re not making a dime, but you’rе busy
you say, “what is it that you want?”
“you’ve got everything that a woman could еver need in life”
oh, that’s true
the pad is laid to the bone, wall+to+wall, everything
i got a closet full of minx, chinchillas
i got a bureau full of diamonds i can change four times a day if i want to
but that’s not it, baby, ’cause i don’t have your love
you even went out and bought me a big bad eldorado to see if that would make up for it, but it didn’t
now i’m gonna move on down the line ’cause i told you chances go ’round and ’round
you’re even tryin’ to eat lobster and drink champagne, now you know that ain’t your rule
’cause you strictly a collard green, cornbread man
now you know if anybody know it, i know it
since you feel like [? 2:02], sit down and drink some champagne with me and let me rap to you
because i know what i’m gonna say to you now i could never say before because tomorrow, i’d be sporting two shiners
but i’m standing tall now, baby, ’cause i got my thing together at last
well, baby
i guess this is a wind+up this time
i’m really going
and i’m not coming back anymore
oh, i know i said it before
but you came all the way to phoenix to get me and you worried me half to death
you said, “baby, i love you, i need you”
“just come back home one more time and i promise you that i’ll never, never hurt you again”

[verse]
this time, we almost
yes, we almost made the pieces fit
didn’t we, babe?
this time, we almost
yes, we almost made some sense of it
didn’t we, babe?
this time, i had the answer
right here in my hand
oh, and when i touched it
don’t you know that it had turned to sand?
this time, we almost
yes, we almost sang our song in tune
didn’t we, babe?
this time, we almost
yes, we almost made it to the moon
didn’t we, babe?
this time, this time, this time, we almost made
we almost made our poem rhyme
and don’t you know that, this time
and don’t you know that, this time
you know we almost, we almost made that long
oh, we almost made that long, hard climb
say, didn’t we, didn’t we, didn’t we almost make it?
yeah, yeah, didn’t we, didn’t we, didn’t we almost make it?
didn’t we almost make it this time?
