Cut You A-Loose - Luther Allison

You never saw me comin' I never wanted nothin' to do with you Do with you The gun was in your hand You were angry like a man You said, "Cut me loose, cut me loose" And I do want to make it back to you Clipped my wings but I still flew Can't go back to the old you, that's not you I could never understand How to meet all your demands Push your point of view 'til it isn't true It gets so dark before the dawn I got no shelter from your arms So I cut you loose, cut you loose And I do want to make it back to you Clipped my wings but I still flew I can't go back to the old you That's not you And I do want to make it back to you Clipped my wings but I still flew I can't go back to the old you That's not you Bad times, you must've left me at the right time Inside showin' on the outside Every time I went back inside You reminded me of how I went down Now nothing's movin', I'm a thin sound Static buzzin' on the cold ground 'Til all that's left are the hopeless and the broken ones Every lie you picked apart It put an arrow through your heart I could feel it too, feel it too You were screamin' in the rain There was no way I could explain So I cut you loose, cut you loose And I do want to make it back to you Clipped my wings but I still flew I can't go back to the old you That's not you And I do want to make it back to you Clipped my wings but I still flew I can't go back to the old you That's not you And I do want to make it back to you Clipped my wings but I still flew Can't go back to the old you That's not you

Baby I'm caving in Nothing I know is clear Where do I go from here? I should have known when you came to me I had eyes on the treasure I couldn't keep Got so buried in love I can hardly breathe Fed you all of my heart and you swallowed me Now I'm starving Stop wasting my time babe No more changing your mind on me Cut me loose Do it for my sake I'll be better on my own Oh oh oh oh I'm picking the silence It's time that I do what's best for me Cut me loose And try to forget me I'll be better on my own On my own Do it do-do it, do it do-do it for my... sake
