Lyrics Goapele – Different
Text:
I’m lookin at you from a distance,
I’m wondering how all my feelings changed
Do you remember even half the shit we used to do?
Who we used to be?
I wish it was different
All these feelings inside me
And I still believe
Clyde Carson:
I mean, what is you sayin? (Damn)
And it could be different
You know I miss the butterflies
The look in your eyes I couldn’t change
And it could be different
And now it feels like it’s over babe
And it could be different
If you could realize you need to set aside just a little time
And it could be different
I know we can make it better baby
I know I can’t keep livin off memories
What if where this is turning, this isn’t meant to be?
We used to get lifted
And now we crave it so insatiably
And lately I’ve been missing all the little things
Clyde Carson:
Well maybe I got comfortable with the way you would treat me
Hot meals cooked up, the way you would feed me
I’m selfish how could I let my fear defeat me?
Scared of something different now I see you complete me
Now hey, I don’t like to argue a bit
Promise I’ll change, if I ain’t gotta hear ya lip
I’m sorry I’m sayin- but you don’t expect
You don’t listen you no different
Save ya breath.
And it could be different
(I know you sayin I should change, throughout time I ain’t the same in my ways)
And it could be different
(I see your feelings start to fade, it’s all my fault huh, ya feelings ain’t the same)
And it could be different
(Ma why is you mad? Acting like everything I do is bad)
And I could be different
(You got some issues too, but face it there ain’t nothing we can’t get through)
You’re high I’m low and jealous distance seems to grab ahold
I miss you so and makin love still feels like comi’ home
We fuss we fight I reunite but then you make it right
You’ll see why I can’t stand the sight of you not in my life
And it could be different
You know I miss the butterflies
The look in your eyes I couldn’t change
And it could be different
And now it feels like its over baby
And it could be different
If you could realize you need to set aside just a little time
And it could be different
I know we can make it better baby
Clyde Carson:
Let’s take it back to the picnics at Tilden, flicks with the children
Talks by the lake dem walks through your building
The feelin of fresh love, can’t dismiss this
I know that you miss it, my permanent Misses
Permanent kisses, from flirtin and wishin
Before all the back and forth huffin and hissin
Hear me and listen I remember our mission
So I’m willin to change if you say that I’m different
And it could be different
(I know you sayin I should change, throughout time I ain’t the same in my ways)
And it could be different
(I see your feelings start to fade, it’s all my fault, huh? feelings ain’t the same)
And it could be different
(Ma why is you mad huh? Acting like everything I do is bad)
And I could be different
(You got some issues too, but listen there ain’t nothing we can’t get through)
(That it could be different) You know I miss the butterflies
The look in your eyes, the way they shine
(It could be different) And now it feels like it’s over, babe
(It could be different) If you could realize you need to set aside just a little time to
(It could be different) I know we can make it better, babe
