Chorus One: (Onome)

Tell me that you want it
Say that you need it
Tell me that you want it
Tell me that you want it
Say that you need it
Tell me that you want it

Verse One: (Markie Dee)

Love, let me break it down as clear as I can
I'll be suddenly smooth so you can understand
I look gentle, gentle as sun rays
Calm as a cool breeze
Flowing through your mind with ease
It seems that you want to be more than friends
But all I want to do is to make commence
My live style keeps me on the move
So just let me explain how you get in my groove

Chorus One

Verse Two:

It seems you're looking for a faithful
Kind and committed man
And you considered L.D. for the part
Now what makes you think that I'm the man for your hand?
If you plan to reprimand my love and my heart
Now when we first met you were cool
Far from your everyday hoe
That's only out for the doe
But in time you feelings started to climb
Baby came a little stronger then mind

Chorus One

Verse Three:

Far from your typical I never kick the same old smooth kind of line
To catch a young girls mind
See, what I'm saying is real
It really means a lot to me how you feel
No disrespect, but lovers I don't want to be
All I see is someone I can talk to in front of me
Stop what you're doing
Cause I don't want to ruin
The bond that we got
Cause I like it a lot
You need a man who can give you his all
Stand by your side, pick you up when you fall
For me I be the one that you rely on
The shoulder that you cry on
Someone that will always be near
Through thick or thin
I'm your friend to the end
You're more that just skins love, you're someone who cares
Sit me down and confide what you're feeling inside
If you need me then call and I'll be at your side

Chorus Two: (Onome)

You just call
I'm your man
And you know, where ever I am
I'll go running
Run in the sea
Winter, Spring, and Summer, Fall I'll be with you

(Repeat Chorus Two 7x)

You just call

You just call

Chorus One And Two

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
