Black Mercedes

One Block Radius

Compositor: Marty James

The lights are on inside of my head
Back in the dark again
The street light burns my skin till I shed
My world is stolen
I watch him leave without a sound
The sky blew the moon down
He pulls away for the day
I know he'll be back again

Oh he drove a black Mercedes parked at her house tonight
All night, all night, yes all night
She told me she loved me, had to work tonight
All lies, all lies, they're all lies

She's so shady I can't believe what I see
No dream, no dream, it's no dream
The windows are shut and she's done with me

You used to say that you can hardly wait
To spend the rest of your life with me
I never told you that I doubted every word you said
You always prove me right
Put me on hold and never came back
You only call me from your Pontiac
You were on your way to his place
You always had your way

Oh he drove a black Mercedes parked at her house tonight
All night, all night, yes all night
She told me she loved me, had to work tonight
All lies, all lies, they're all lies
She's so shady I can't believe what I see
No dream, no dream, it's no dream
The windows are shut and she's done with me

Now I understand why you were screening your calls when I'm around you
You won't even listen to me
I should have known why you were clowning my load
I wish I had knew, I'd have dropped you off in the street
You no good little girl
When I met you you were into techno
You were my cover girl
I can't believe you let go

Oh he drove a black Mercedes parked at her house tonight
All night, all night, yes all night
She told me she loved me, had to work tonight
All lies, all lies, they're all lies
She's so shady I can't believe what I see
No dream, no dream, it's no dream
The windows are shut and she's done with me
