Music and Lyrics by James Harris III, Terry Lewis and Jon Secada
Tender was the night
Took an early flight
Rushing' home tonight
Something' wasn't right
I can't believe my eyes
I know I must be dreaming.
Chorus
Did I come home too late, too son
You in his arms told me the truth
Too late, too soon.
I wish I would have known
I wouldn't have left you all alone
Temptation led you wrong
Tell me how long has this been going on
Cause I thought our love was strong
I guess I must be dreaming.
Chorus
Did I come home too late, too son
You in his arms told me the truth
Too late, too soon.
What was I supposed to do
You had to see it for yourself
Cause I thought our love was strong
I guess I must be dreaming.
Repeat Chorus(Mick Jagger / Keith Richards)
Everywhere I hear the sound
of marching, charging feet boy
'Cause the summer's here
and the time is right for
fighting in the street boy
Hey think the time is right
for a palace revolution
Where I live the game to play
is just to compromise my solution
What can a poor boy do
except to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
'Cause you see bein' London town
there's just no other place
for a street fighting man
Hey did I tell you that my name
was called disturbance
And I'll shout and scream
and I'll kill the king and
I'll rail at all his servants
What can a poor boy do
except to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
'Cause you see bein' London town
there's just no place
for a street fighting man
Everywhere I hear the sound
of marching, charging feet boy
'Cause the summer's here
and the time is right for
fighting in the street boy
What can a poor boy do
except to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
'Cause you see bein' London town
there's just no other place
for a street fighting man
