"Not The Same" lyrics
"Not The Same"
You took a trip and climbed a tree
At Robert Sledge's party
And there you stayed 'til morning came
You were not the same after that
You gave your life to Jesus Christ
And after all your friends went home
You came down, you looked around
And you were not the same after that
(Ah ah)
You were not the same after that
(Ah ah)
You were not the same after that
You see 'em drop like flies from the bright sunny skies
They come knocking at your door with this look in their eyes
You've got one good trick and you're hanging on you're hanging on
To it
You took the word and made it heard
And eased the people's pain and for that
You were idolised, immortalised
And you were not the same after that
Walking tall, you'd bought it all
And you were not the same after that
'Til someone died on the waterslide
And you were not the same after that
You see 'em drop like flies from the bright sunny skies
They come knocking at your door with this look in their eyes
You've got one good trick and you're hanging on you're hanging on to it
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh)
(You were not the same!)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh)
You see 'em drop like flies from the bright sunny skies
They come knocking at your door with this look in their eyes
You've got one good trick and you're hanging on you're hanging on
You see 'em drop like flies
You're hanging on
You're hanging on
You're hanging on

I'm not feeling that great,
I'm not catching on fire today,
Love has started to fade,

I'm not gonna laugh,
You're out living it up...
