After the Flood

Brandy · Other Songs - Brandy

Intro:

I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

I'ma clear it up

I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

Storm is over



Verse 1:

I'm in here freezing

My mouth turning blue

This time not from screaming

But crying for you

You gave me a teardrop

I gave you a flood

But I'm lost in here now

And you just gave up



Bridge:

I can't believe it's over taking me

Feel like I'm drowning from the hurt, oh no

My feelings were securing me

But now the dam has let my feelings go



Chorus:

Love is a natural disaster

Can't stop it from happenin'

Just make the day after

Day after the flood

It's like a natural disaster

I'm gonna outlast it

'Til the day after

Day after the flood

Day after the flood

Day after the flood



I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

I'ma clear it up

I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

I'ma clear it up

I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

I'ma clear it up

I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

Storm is over



Verse 2:

I'm floating in sorrow

I'm way past a leak

I feel a tsunami

Right here on my cheek

But after the storm

I can see my relief

Cuz all of my pain

Is floating around me



Bridge



Chorus



I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

I'ma clear it up

I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

I'ma clear it up

I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

I'ma clear it up

I'm dryin' all up

I'ma change all my plans

So I can take a stand

Storm is over
