Curtis Mayfield — Suffer

Standing here alone Looking off to the sky Even the stars seem to be mated And I ask myself why I can't understand why I never made a play When you were so pretty to me in every way Why couldn't I see you were in love with me? Why didn't I know just which way to go? Now I cannot forget Standing here with the fear And now I must suffer Oh everybody know this woman I loved What will I become? Loneliness blends with the sun But there for me I already see I don't want you away from me If only I wasn't so blind And gave you some kind of sign This might not have been Yes it's me standing out looking in Throw your heart out the door I guess I won't do it no more Now I got to suffer The woman I loved her It seems sometimes in life You waste a sacrifice The lack of the love you show her Can show her the things right on out the door Why couldn't I see you were in love with me? This might not have been Yes it's me standing out looking in Throw your heart out the door I guess I won't do that no more Now I got to suffer The loss of the woman I loved her It seems sometimes in life You waste your sacrifice I don't know what come over me Just got to let it be Suffer I got to suffer Suffer Got to Got to Got to suffer Got to suffer Got to suffer Got to suffer Got to suffer
