Lyrics

0:00Composer: Sade
0:09Clean heart
0:13Clean and sharp
0:19Clean dream
0:23Bad start
0:28He loved his brother and his sister
0:32Luke and Tony called him mister
0:36They made him feel much more
0:43Like a man
0:47He loved his daddy though he never told him
0:52And how he loved his mother
0:58He loved, he loved, loved, loved her like an Italian
1:07Little Janet said you look so fine
1:12So fine
1:19But something in his smile
1:22Made them feel like strangers
1:28And then he straightened his belt
1:32With a lover's touch
1:38And he said i'm gonna bring home
1:41The things that are out of your clutch
1:48Seemed like the hottest night in summer
1:58A heat that makes you feel like dying
2:07Somewhere in the next block
2:11There was a baby crying
2:17Finger on the trigger for the years to come
2:36And as the moon slid up over the restless streets
2:46Sirens mocking and people stop to see
2:57Their greedy eyes don't realize
3:02He's someone's son
3:07Finger on the trigger for the years to come
3:16Finger on the trigger for the years to come

Clean heart
Clean and sharp
Clean dream
Bad start
He loved his brother and his sister
Luke and Tony called him mister
They made him feel much more
Like a man
He loved his daddy though he never told him
And how he loved his mother
He loved, he loved, loved, loved her like an Italian
Little Janet said you look so fine
So fine
But something in his smile
Made them feel like strangers
And then he straightened his belt
With a lover's touch
And he said i'm gonna bring home
The things that are out of your clutch
Seemed like the hottest night in summer
A heat that makes you feel like dying
Somewhere in the next block
There was a baby crying
Finger on the trigger for the years to come
And as the moon slid up over the restless streets
Sirens mocking and people stop to see
Their greedy eyes don't realize
He's someone's son
Finger on the trigger for the years to come
Finger on the trigger for the years to come
