Just Like U Said It Would B Lyrics

I will walk in the garden
Feel religion within
I will learn how to run with the big boys
I will learn how to sink and to swim

And there's talk in the houses
And people dancing in rings
Ah, when you close my eyes, babe
I can see most everything
I can see most everything

It's just like u said it would b
It's just like u said it would b
It's just like u said it would b
It's just like u said it would b

I can see too many mouths open, too many eyes closed, ears closed
Not enough minds open, too many legs open
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, do
Why isn't it why, why
I don't see why I listen, why, why

When I've walked in the garden
When I'm walking off stage
When everything's quiet

Will you stay?
Will you be my lover?
Will you be my mama?
I said, will you be my lover?
I said, will you be my babe?

When I lay down my head at the end of my day
Nothing would, nothing would please me better
Than I find that you're there

When I lay down my head at the end of my day
Nothing would, nothing would please me better
Than I find that you're there when I wake

Just like u said it would b
Just like u said it would b
Just like u said it would b
Just like u said it would b

Will you be my lover?
Will you be my mama?

Just like u said it would b
Just like u said it would b
Just like u said it would b
Just like u said it would b
