You had me - Joss Stone

13 september 2015

Die debuutplaat, wow. Nog puur, retestrak en soul zoals je soul wilt horen. En dan ook nog eens er uitzien zoals ze er uitziet. Vervolgens iets te groot geworden, maniertjes erbij, plaatjes wat minder, zalen te groot en het grote, diepe gat lonkt al. Haal haar terug naar Paradiso en laat haar lekker soul doen, mag ze heur haarkleur wat mij betreft nog gewoon zelf bepalen.

I've realized in time that my eyes are not blind

I've seen it before, I'm taking back my life

Joss Stone

Spitting in my eyes and I still see
tried to keep me down, I'm breaking free
I don't want no part in your next fix
someone needs to tell you this is it
hey listen you'll be missin' out
on all my love and my kissing
make your mistakes on your own time
when you come down you're just no good to have around
instead of making money you took mine

You had me, you lost me, you're wasted, you cost me
I don't want you here messing with my mind
I've realized in time that my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before, I'm taking back my life

You tried to trade on my naivety
but the things you do and say embarrass me
see once upon a time I was your fool
but the one I leave behind is you
hey listen you'll be missin' out
on all my love and my kissing
make your mistakes on your own time
when you come down you're just no good to have around
instead of making money you took mine

You had me, you lost me, you're wasted, you cost me
I don't want you here messing with my mind
I've realized in time that my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before, I'm taking back my life

Vodka and a packet of cigarettes
that's all it used to be but now
you're sniffing on snow when you're feeling low
suffocating dreams that could have been
maybe for a minute I was down with that
but it didn't take long for me to see the light
you swore you had control of it
but when I stepped back you slipped on your supply

You had me, you lost me, you're wasted, you cost me
I don't want you here messing with my mind
I've realized in time that my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before, I'm taking back my life

Taking it back I'm taking it back, taking back my life
Taking it back I'm taking it back, taking back my life
ain't nobody got no business stressing all the time
taking it back I'm taking it back, taking back my life

You had me, you lost me, you're wasted, you cost me
I don't want you here messing with my mind
I've realized in time that my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before, I'm taking back my life

Taking it back I'm taking it back, taking back my life
taking it back I'm taking it back, taking back my life
ain't nobody got no business stressing all the time
taking it back I'm taking it back, taking back my life
