Run out by my mama
And every girl just gives me drama
All my friends are lookin' older
But you still look the same
And I'm standin' on the corner
I see you walkin' on by
Askin' if I'm doin' fine
Like you're some friend of mine
Oh, you must have lost track of time
And yes, I got your letter
I didn't think they wrote those anymore
And no, I ain't feelin' much better
But I ain't still feelin' so sore
Nobody told me that being lonely was what good lovin' could do
I'll be your brother, I'll be your sister
I'll show you everything new
I'll show you everything new
It's rainin' in chicago
The rain falls on my window
It's been a while since we've spoken
I guess my doorbell must be broken
And I'm spendin' all my money
I got to get some luck on my side
Drivin' in the rain, early in the morning
With the sun risin' up in the sky
You ain't from 'round here
Why'd you come down here?
Must be a long way from home
Forget the distance
It don't mean nothin'
You're callin' me on the phone
But ah haw
You only call when I'm gone
