Def Ears - Eric Roberson

God, I don’t know where to begin

I’m so lost, I can’t even pretend

Like the girl that I see right in front of me

Don’t have control, she’s like a friend to my heart

Key to my future lover of soul

Crazy thing, I didn’t even know her name

Who she was and where she came from

But she passed me this passion

Pushed back my action like we couldn’t deal

Said something 'bout timing

Paths not aligning but I need her still

Left my heart with lovely stranger

One way street headed for danger

Closed my eyes but still can’t fade her

She’s been there for years

I’ve been heart messin' with lesser

Even though I do no better

I spend my nights writing love letters

Landing on def ears

So I ask

Can she be a simple friend also made for me?

Is it a phase just passing by

Or could she be missing pieces in my life?

God, I ask u for clarity

There’s an answer there’s gotta be

If it was just a crush or infatuation I’d understand

But she reaches for me

Uses words when we speak like I was her man

Left me heart with lovely stranger
