Esperanza Spalding — Change Us lyrics

Lyrics

Soon as it’s quiet, then a storm
Is already a' forming
Rumbling with your lover’s doubt
And then you cloud me out
And the lightning flies
But then I see you on a corner
Shining for some
and baby doll
Venetian
Feather to fetch your mind
Look, we can fight and stay on the same team in the same room
But if you walk away
That’ll be our last play
I already know when my grass is greener don’t you?
Why just complicate it You know I love it, but I hate it When you start kicking dust
Why must we fuss?
Just when it’s good, you wanna change us Why must we fuss?
Just when it’s good, you wanna change us Why must we fuss?
Just when it’s good, you wanna change us Why must we fuss?
Just when it’s good?
Soon as you see a happy ending
Up around the bend
We break into you lover’s swerve
And end up on the curb
With a stalling grind
And then I hear that you were told
Our engine’s getting colder
Malcolm, Ben and Johnathan
Heading pedestrians
Steer ya from behind
Look there are breakdowns all along this road to love
And some hitchhikers, too
Looking to just ride along
We can still back on to the good road; hand-in-glove
Please don’t complicate it You know I love you, but I hate it When you start kicking dust
Look in the mirror, darling
Try to see clearer, darling
Not getting younger, darling
Why must we fuss?
Just when it’s good, you wanna change us I don’t wanna change us
