Waterfalls by TLC

A lonely mother gazing out of the window
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much

But all the (1)______________ just ain't helping at all
'Cause he can't seem to (2)________ himself out of trouble
So, he goes out and he makes his money
The best way he (3)__________ how
Another body laying cold in the gutter, listen to me

Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you used to
I (4)________ that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're (5)____________ too fast

Little precious has a natural obsession
For temptation, but he (6)________ can't see

She (7)__________ him loving that his body can't handle
But all he can say is, baby, it's good to me

One day he (8)________ and (9)__________ a glimpse in the mirror
But he doesn't recognize his own face

His health is fading and he doesn't know why
Three letters took him to his final (10)______________ place
You all don't hear me

Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you used to
I know that you're gonna have it (11)________ way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast
Come on
I've seen a rainbow yesterday
But too many storms have (12)________ and gone
Leaving a trace of not on God given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of grey
I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
And like His promise is true, only my faith can undo
The (13)________ (14)______________ I blew to (15)__________ my life to anew
Clear (16)________ and unconditional skies
Have dried the tears from my eyes, no more lonely cries
My only (17)________________ hope is for the folk who can't cope
With such an enduring pain
That it keeps them in the pouring rain
Who's to (18)__________ for tooting caine in your own vein
What a shame, you shoot and aim for someone else's brain
You claim the insane
And name (19)________ day in (20)________ for falling (21)________ to crime
I say the system got you (22)____________ to your own mind
Dreams are hopeless aspirations in hopes of coming true
Believe in yourself
The rest is up (to me and you)
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please (23)__________ to the (24)____________ and the lakes that you used to
I (25)________ that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're (26)____________ too fast
Oh, you're moving too fast
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you used to
I know (27)________ you're gonna have it your way or (28)______________ at all
