Hurry Up This Way, Again
Stylistics · Very Best & More [2006]
So many nights I've spend here all alone by myself
Whenever you're with him, whose loving me, nobody
Hurry up this way again, I love you, hurry up this way again
I'll never know when I'm going to see you again
Can't make no plans, I just see you whenever I can
What happens in between, I sit and dream about you
Hurry up this way again, I love you, hurry up this way again
So many lives I spend here all alone
I love you, hurry up this way again
I need you, I want you, I don't want nobody else
Hurry up this way again, I love you, hurry up this way again
I love you, hurry up this way again
I've gotta have you, I want you, hurry up this way again
Hurry up this way again, I love you, hurry up this way again
