Woke up singing Waterfalls by TLC and was inspired to do a 2020 re-write. My new lyrics are below. I hope you like it. Thank you 🙏 for the inspiration T Boz, Chilli, Lisa Left Eye Lopez, Marqueze Etheridge ‪& Organized Noize
WATERFALLS 2020
Lonely people gazing out of their windows
Staring at a world they can’t touch
Wishing that they could be side by side
Cuz being so alone can hurt so much
But all the praying in the world means nothing now.
If you don’t keep yourself out of trouble
So stay in and take care the best way you know how
Don’t end up lying dead in a gutter
Don’t go chasing waterfalls
stick to the rivers and the lakes that you’re used to
I know that you wanna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you’re moving too fast
So much time to obsess on the latest scandal
Convincing yourself that you know best
But we’re never given more than we can handle
And we’ve got to work our way together out of this mess
The past is gone the future is unclear
And today may be all that we’ve got
But we can’t give up on life take a look in the mirror
And hit it with your very best shot
