Sewers

[Verse 1]
That bad news gon' leave you stoned
Tia called on the phone
To say you passed in the night
I crumpled onto the street
The asphalt burning my knees
To cry hot tears in July

[Pre-Chorus]
Why'd you have to leave?
Before we found the time
For apologies
For some peace of mind
Why'd you have to leave?
Gon' haunt me all my nights

[Chorus]
I never found out
No, I never found out
If we could get along in this life
If we could get along in this life

[Verse 2]
My tears were flooding the road
Like hydrants wet the windows
Of cars that crept passing by
But you would not come back to me
So I laid down in the street
Like water swept down the pipes

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm floating through the sewers and out to sea
Maybe we'll meet
On the other side
I'm floating through the sewers and out to sea
Maybe we'll meet
On the other side

[Chorus]
I never found out
No, I never found out
If we could get along in this life
If we could get along in this life
No, I never found out
No, I never found out
If we could get along in this life
If we could get along in this life

[Bridge]
Why'd you have to leave
Before we found the time
To be a family?
To love without design
Why'd you have to leave?
Gon' haunt me all my nights

[Chorus]
But I never found out
No, I never found out
If we could get along in this life
If we could get along in this life
