Nights in Philly

Boy, you got this, you got this I pray, boy, that you got this
You're over there all alone, you know I worry about you from home
You got this, you got this I pray, boy, that you got this
You gotta make it alone, you know I'm waiting for you at home
Boy you got this

Nights in Philly don't seem so chilly when the girls 'round (girls 'round)
And quite sincerely I'm missing your touch and it hurts now (it hurts
I'm on one, and I'm not two, you love me and I hurt you
Bring back all the good times we did have before you cried (you cried)

Done cried in my sheets, just to reach heights they don't teach
Back at home, where we both grown
In my sheets I feel so alone, in a new home away from your touch
I stay missin' you like so much, But I got dreams I'm tryna achieve
Girl just please be patient with me

These nights in Philly pass by so slow
And I'm missin' you at home I feel alone, Every cloud reminds me of your touch
And I'm countin' days cause I'm missin' you so much
Like damn, ready for the encore 12,000 miles, do you want more?
When we dance, your essence I adore, and you pour your love like a rainy day
And I dare to say that I love you, well I could say that I love you

I don't think I've been in love before, if it was it was more like a civil war
And I'm civil for your soft touch when I met you once, that was all I need
Silent house, it was just us in a night storm and you couldn't leave
And you couldn't defeat your flaws that I look so highly upon

The beautiful mistakes that make up you, take me to places I never knew
Is it true, before I leave, one more night will set us free
Cause I never been one to not foresee my dreams, but if there's one thing, girl, it's gon' be me
And it's gon' be you Holdin' me down
And I'm down and willin' to be a dog, girl, Put me in the pound, put me in the race
Cause I'll race for love, if it has your face

Boy, you got this, you got this, I pray, boy, that you got this
You're over there all alone You know I worry 'bout you from home
You got this, you got this, I pray, boy, that you got this
You gotta make it alone, you know I'm waitin' for you at home
Boy, you got this

I wander in the shadows, feeling lost without your light
Streets seem so empty, got my doggies to the right
In the city that never sleeps, I'm in the streets like every night
Receive missed calls of love, And I respond out of spite

And despite all that I preach, And an insight of all that you teach
When I'm alone, I feel so grown
All my tender care at home, I stay missing physical touch
So I search for it deep in the rough, not thinkin' 'bout the critical toll
I put upon your heart and your soul

And the heart and soul stay breakfast
Runnin' with the gang and opposite sexes
Runnin' up the score in Memphis and Texas
Funny enough, I stay eager for what's next
And I vex all of my demons, I create new ones in every single city I visit
I'm on the edge, complex, and I'd rather go to prison
I'd rather go to heaven than have my heart broken

Boy, you got this, you got this I pray, boy, that you got this
You're over there all alone, you know I worry 'bout you from home
You got this, you got this I pray, boy, that you got this
You gotta make it alone, you know I'm waitin' for you at home

Boy, you got this you got this I pray, boy, that you got this
You're over there all alone, you know I worry 'bout you from home
You got this, you got this I pray, boy, that you got this
You gotta make it alone, you know I'm waitin' for you at home
