Peter and the Wolf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just want your love i want the strings attached
Girl I’ll break my spine for you to see
That ima love you how you love me back
And if I fall would you let me
Or better yet, baby is you falling with me
Why does love always give a nigga heart attacks
Why does love always make me feel empty
Never did you right but you still loved me strong
Stood by my side even when I was gone
Had to face my pride and tell it move along
Cuz I was blinded by the darkness couldn’t stay true
And I was young, I was dumb, but that’s no excuse
I can’t imagine all the pain that I put you through
I’m sorry that it took this long for me to love you
I’m dead now baby don’t cry for me
I wish this never had to end but let me Rest In Peace
And you know I’ll always guide you yeah wherever you’ll be
And when you fall apart just close your eyes and channel for me
I’ll put you back together when you feel like you’re in pieces
Life goes on baby you still have a meaning
Gotta stay strong even when you lost your feelings
If you feel alone just look up and I’ll give you healing
And if I fall would you let me
Or better yet, baby is you falling with me
Why does love always give a nigga heart attacks
Why does love always make me feel empty
I’m dead inside but I’m still holding on
Never did you right but you still loved me strong
Stood by my side even when I was gone
Had to face my pride and tell it move along
