"Oh, Maker" lyrics - JANELLE MONAE

JANELLE MONAE
"Oh, Maker"
(Charles Joseph II / Dr. Nathaniel Irvin III / Janelle Monae Robinson)

I hear the drizzle of the rain
It's fallin' from my window
And in the corners of my mind
I hope that I'll get to see you again
La-da die da-die da-die da-die, my friend

I hear the colors in the flowers, oooh
Just like the candle snuffed at dawn
You're here, you're near, you're there and then you're gone
La-da daa da-daa da-dum da-dum

Suffering in sinking sand
All the hurt
See, I'm really lost, baby
We suffered a rare, rare blue
So much hurt
On this Earth
But you loved me
And I really dared to love you too
Perhaps what I mean to say is
Is that it's amazing that your love was mine

Oh, Maker, tell me did you know
This love would burn so yellow
Becoming orange and in it's time
Explode from gray to black, then bloody wine?
La-da die da-die da-die da-die

Oh, Maker have you ever loved
Or known just what it was?
I can't imagine the bitter end
Of all the beauty that we're living in
Oh, no

Suffering in sinking sand
All the hurt
See I'm pretty lost, baby
We suffered a rare, rare blue
So much hurt
On this Earth
But you loved me
And I really dared to love you too
Perhaps what I mean to say
Is that it's amazing that your love was mine

Lost inside a lonely world where love must pay the price
Barely hear the sound of music to love and go dance to
Now it's time for us to go and no one ever knows
While I'm lookin' in your eyes
Eyes are in my, eyes in my soul
No one will know it but me
