Nnenna Freelon - Lately

 

Nnenna Freelon - Lately

Lately I've had the strangest feeling
With no even reason here to find
but yet the thought of losing you's been hanging
Around my mind

Far more frequently you're wearing perfume
And with you saying 'No special place to go'
But when I ask, will you be coming back soon?
Saying you don't know, never know

I'm a girl of many wishes
Hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel
My eyes won't let me hide
Cuz it always starts to cry

Lately I've been staring in the mirror
Very slowly picking me apart
Saying I'm trying to tell myself I have a reason
With your heart
Girl, just the other night while you were sleeping
I heard you vaguely whisper someone's name
But, when I asked you what the thoughts you keeping
You just said 'Nothing changed'

I'm a girl of many wishes
Hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel
My eyes won't let me hide
Cuz it always starts to cry

I'm a girl of many wishes
Hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel
My eyes won't let me hide
Cuz it always starts to cry
Cuz this time could mean good bye
