Riding hard - With Sista Blue


 Press play before reading.

Salute.


Memories 

Is all I got 


For my true loves 

On the highways 


Riding hard 

With Sista Blue


And I'm in the big house 

Cos my loving days 

Are Through 


My tears are

Falling 


Calling 

Like lonely raindrops 


As I think of you

 

And

Memories 

Is all I got 


Memories of someone 

Who haunts me


They're everywhere 

I see 


Memories 

Reminding me 


Of a place 


A place

I wanna be 


But still 


Memories 

Is all I got 


For my true loves 

On the highways 


Riding hard 

With Sista Blue


And I'm in the big house 

Cos my loving days 

Are Through 


Filled with

Memories 


Hurting 


As you pray 

For someone new  


Remembering her saying 


Stick around boy 

Whatever you do


Don't come for me 

I'll come for you 


But now


My true loves on the highways 

Riding hard with Sista Blue


And I'm in the big house 


Cos my loving days 

Are Through
