Lyrics

Lately, I've had the strangest feeling, oh, yeah

With no vivid reason here to find (ooh)

But yet the thought of losing you's been hanging

Around my mind ('round my mind)

K-Ci, sing it, sing it (around my mind)

Far more frequently you're wearing perfume

And with you say no special place to go (ooh)

But when I ask will you be coming back soon

And you don't know, never know (whoa)

I'm a man of many wishes

Hope my premonition misses

But what I really feel, my eyes won't let me hide

'Cause they always start to cry, yeah yeah, baby, well, well

'Cause this time could mean good, goodbye

Bye-bye, farewell, farewell (farewell), uh

Oh, you ought to tell me (farewell)

Lately I've been staring in the mirror, oh yeah

Very slowly picking me apart, oh (ooh)

Says, I'm trying to tell myself that I have no reason

With your heart, yeah yeah, yeah

Just the other night while you were sleeping, ha

I vaguely heard you whisper someone's name, hey (ooh)

But when I ask you of the thoughts you're keeping

You just say that nothing changed (nothing changed, yeah)

I'm a man of many wishes

I hope my premonition misses (oh, yeah)

But what I really feel, my eyes won't let me hide

'Cause they always (always, always) start (start) to cry, yeah

Yes, they do (yes, they do)

Yes, they do (yes, they do)

'Cause this time could, could mean goodbye

It could mean goodbye (it could mean goodbye)

It could mean goodbye (whoa)
