Pleasure over Pain - Al Jarreau

Three after two

The autum moments of a night without you

Endless seconds

Watching one window pain fight back the rain

While I’m trapped here inside your love

Once upon a time

You And I had an everlasting love that ended way before it’s time

Scattered like the stars in the sky

Are the feelings that I have for you that never got to shine

And it cuts me to the core

But I keep coming back for more

As long as love remains, then it’s pleasure over pain

Saying every line I should have said

Knowing every little move that I should have made instead

Tortured by a mind that won’t forget

And my heart is like a butterfly trapped inside your net

And it’s breaking me into

But for you it is the least I’d do

As long as love remains, then it’s pleasure over pain

Hear the seconds ticking by

Praying that you’ll change your mind

Breaking every rule I know

Ready to give up my pride

Waiting for a second chance

Have I waited way too long

If I had you here again

You would never leave I know

Here I am again tonight

Chanting out this little rhyme

Am I gettin' through to you or am I wasting time
