Ticktock
It always seems to be this way
my relationships just don’t last
time seems to be runnin’ out
and my clock is tickin’ fast
I’ve been reckless with the quickies
I’ve played the mistress too
what’s a single mom past forty
want a man to do
I want someone to cherish me
caress me with respect
not always tryin’ to figure out
how to put my mind in check
Forget the empty promises
I deserve a committin’ man
don’t fly by here to see me
if you don’t intend to land
I’ve got a lot of love to give
perhaps I give too much
just to feel companionship
of a good man’s mental touch
Maybe it’s time to end the search
stop giving out my heart
turn a deaf ear to the ticks
and love me as a start
Praying for the kind of love
my heart and mind deserves
send the man I still dream of
the one God has reserved
