TOWER OF POWER
"Man From The Past"
(Castillo, Kupka, Williams)

Out of the past, he came a-walkin'
And he waked right back into your life
Ain't no need, in you tryin' to deny it girl
'Cuz you know I ain't tellin' no lie
I can tell by the look in your eye
That the fire for him, still burning you inside
Since he's been back girl
Things just seemed to change
Why the other night, in your sleep, you even called out his name
I thought our love would last
But it seems I've been replaced by a man from the past
(Out of the past, he came walkin'
And he walked all over our love)
When we first got together
You said your thing with him was through
I was in love, so I believed ya
But what you said girl, didn't quite ring true
When you were with him, he hurt you before
Now you seem to wanna run off back for more
Oh I just can't accept the reasons that you give
Cuz' losin' you'll make life so hard to live
I thought our love would last
But it seems I've been replaced by a man from the past
(Out of the past, he came walkin'
And he walked all over our love)
How could you treat a good man so bad?
You went on out and ruined all the plans we had
Girl I wish that man would let us be;
I wanted your love to belong only to me
I thought our love would last
But it seems I've been replaced by a man from the past
(Out of the past, he came walkin'
And he walked all over our love)
Out of the past, he came a-walkin'
Out of the past girl, he came a-talkin'
Out of the past, he came a-stalkin'
Out of the past child, he came a-honkin'
He was walkin', talkin', honkin', stalkin', tamperin', on our love, oh God, oh God
That evil man, that dirty man, he took our love
And he crushed, it in his hand, oh God
