Ronda
Hasan Johnson 1980 (Peoria Illinois)
Time well spent
You and I
Only passion
Honesty without lies
Bad habits understood
We relate in so many ways
Maybe next lifetime
When to our addictions we’re not slaves
Coming to see you
Miles I walked to town
Outside of city limits no bus would come around
No car no bike
Just a pair of old shoes
The love you gave cured me of my blues
Our affair was ended
Jail took me away
Hope all is well with you
Every night I pray
Ronda
