You must be that graceful place in my life

My warmth, serenity

The place I long to be

My life has been twisted, full of turmoil and chaos

Winds blowing heavy, face full of dust

I’ve been thrown from corner to corner

Pushed around in this disaster

Everything just kinda went so fast

Nothing good would ever last

They were just thrown into oblivion

Gone with the great destruction

Of my life

 

But since that moment when our lives had somehow crossed paths

Everything got calm in my soul and heart

You must be

The eye of this storm

That’s been blowing

Thru my life

Giving me scars

Keeping me down

Keeping me down

But now

 

With you I can feel an inner peace

All the cold and heavy rain and winds have ceased

So you must be

The eye of this storm

The eye of this strom

 

(Solo)

 

I can see just where everything has it’s place right now with you

Somehow you make life better whatever it is you do

I never thought there’d be a way to re-organize everything

With all that thunder and all those things so frightening

 

But you came just like a blessing out in the open

Now I know of just what I should be hoping

And even if someone you’re gone

I know I can carry on

And make it thru the rest of the storm

Knowing where my thoughts belong

You must be that sacred place in my life

Where everything is right

The eye of this storm Oh Wooh!

The eye of this storm Oh Wooh!

The eye of this storm!

Just when the sparkle in her bright eyes

Were brighter every time I was around her

When her friends would whisper when I came around

Just when she started telling me things

That she never used to talk about

When she’d hug me on arriving and on departing

Saying how happy she was when I was there

Just when things started off on the right foot

Low and behold that f***** took her away!

(Melancholy Music)

I got the call at two in the morning

It was her sister on the other line

She was talking so fast her voice was unclear

I said hold up hold on is everything fine?

When she finally calmed down

She broke the news to me

How her sister had been

Killed in a robbery

I dropped that phone and dropped to the ground

Thinking NO this can’t be real

This just can’t be real!

 

We were gonna be so much

I ran out in the night cursing at God!

Why the hell do you treat me this way!!!

Am I not good enough?

Haven’t I been tested enough?

Why do you always take it away?

Everytime I’m on the verge of love!

Everytime I’m close enough!

(Solo)

Well somehow I found me a peace of the heart

I’ve stopped blaming God for all my disasters

But every time I get a chance to think

I think so long and so hard about her

If I ever find out who killed her

I don’t know what I might do

Cause she was gonna be my girlfriend

The one whom I would die for too!

Hey hey hey ain;t we friends?

I got something I got to tell you

But I just can’t say it straight

I’m just gonna give you a clue

You leave home eight and come back ten

Another rooster been crowing in your pen

Do you keep check between now and then?

I think it happens too often

 

And you you you, you work real hard

To put that feed on the table

You should only get what you deserve

You deserve treatment wonderful

But you don’t get that, heed what I said

Another plough been ploughing your flower bed

Do you keep tabs? Do you use your head?

You should be treated better instead

 

I I I , I been observing

Buy I should have said something sooner

I’m just looking out for my buddy

I thought it was gonna get better

Someone else would think it funny

Another bee been sucking your honey

Does your queen do it for money?

I don’t think that it should be

 

And plain and simple as I can

Your woman’s been screwing another man!
