You don't have a clue
What it is like to be next to you
I'm here to tell you
That it is good
That it is true
Birds singing a song
Old paint is peeling
This is that fresh
That fresh feeling
Words can't be that strong
My heart is reeling
This is that fresh
That fresh feeling
Try
Try to forget what's in the past
Tomorrow is here
Love,
Orange sky above lighting your way
There's nothing to fear
Birds singing a song
Old paint is peeling
This is that fresh
That fresh feeling
Words can't be that strong
My heart is reeling
This is that fresh
That fresh feeling
Some people are good
Babe in the 'hood
So pure and so free
I'd make a safe bet
You're gonna get whatever you need
What it is like to be next to you
I'm here to tell you
That it is good
That it is true
Birds singing a song
Old paint is peeling
This is that fresh
That fresh feeling
Words can't be that strong
My heart is reeling
This is that fresh
That fresh feeling
Try
Try to forget what's in the past
Tomorrow is here
Love,
Orange sky above lighting your way
There's nothing to fear
Birds singing a song
Old paint is peeling
This is that fresh
That fresh feeling
Words can't be that strong
My heart is reeling
This is that fresh
That fresh feeling
Some people are good
Babe in the 'hood
So pure and so free
I'd make a safe bet
You're gonna get whatever you need

i'ts not great lyrics, but being the first thing i think of when mentally seatching for E's lyrics, its not fantastic. Hey, why am i arguiing against you, he is almost always fucking fantastic!
"You don't have a clue what it is like to be next to you" - - such incredible, simple, honest words.
"I had a fever and felt really miserable. I wanted to write something 'fresh' because I felt so very not fresh. I saw a tape of the string session for one of the songs ['Selective Memory'] from the last album sitting on the desk and thought, 'too bad I can't use those strings.' Then I thought, 'who says I can't?' and Koool G Murder and I set out to find a way to take something from the near past and make it fresh."
