East Detroit Lyrics by Samm Henshaw

Untidy Soul

2022

[Verse 1]
We said Paris all spring
Made names for the offspring
Colours for the vows
Where are you right now?
We made plans for all things
But our dreams were just dreams
Dreams don't work sometimes
It stays on my mind
I had dreams of making love from scratch, uh
You had tendencies and mine couldn't match
And I'd do anything to bring that back
But time don't go in rewind, no
[Pre-Chorus]
Roadways stay paved with good intentions, lead to
Bad days, we'll wait, get the money, we're the
O'Jays, why can't we just go back to the
Old days, old days? Like we used to be
[Chorus]
Baby, it's 4 A.M. in East Detroit
And I'd to anything to hear your voice, your voice
It gets so lonely when your heart is broken
I was hoping we could talk it out
Maybe we could talk it out
[Verse 2]
4 A.M. I'm fine but you've been on my mind
I can't lie, can't be the first to call
My pride won't let me fall, not this time
Time heals everything but this wound
Baby, I'm so tired of sleeping in the guest room, wondering
What you're doing in the next room and
Make your next move, yeah, your best move
[Chorus]
Baby, it's 4 A.M. in East Detroit
And I'd to anything to hear your voice, your voice
You're so lonely when your heart is broken
I was hoping we could talk it out
Baby, we could talk it out (Oh, baby we could talk it out)
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Roadways, stay paved with good intentions, lead to
Bad days, we'll wait, get the money, we're the
O'Jays, why can't we just go back to the
Old days, old days, like we used to be
Roadways, stay paved with good intentions, lead to
Bad days, we'll wait, get the money, we're the
O'Jays, why can't we just go back to the
Old days, old days, like we used to be
