[Verse 1]
And you were always tryna [?] for my brother
Habits, oh, tryna find that something new
Never steal in the arms of a lover
Seeking darkness wherever lightning shine through
[Pre-Chorus]
Alone came a morning of another
Blind sided by your sweet surprise
[Chorus]
Odetta, don't you know
That you save this young man soul
And he go watch you getting wise
And you go watch him growing old
[Verse 2]
We're always searching for destruction
Now you [?] the scars of a [?] that you chose
Takes a brave and a stronger kind of woman
It's far away such a broken man can go
[Pre-Chorus]
Alone came a morning of another
Blind sided by your sweet surprise
[Chorus]
Odetta, don't you know
That you save this young man soul
And he go watch you getting wise
And you go watch him growing old
[Bridge]
You got to hold him close
Or that you know that you never let him go
Might be [?]
Although we may need you never
Need you now more than ever
[Chorus]
Odetta, don't you know
That you save this young man soul
And he go watch you getting wise
And you go watch him growing old
Odetta
