When 2 R in Love

Lovesexy in general is excellent, but this song has just stuck out like a sore thumb to me. It's like the one of the ultimate love making songs imo. The passion he sings this with. Especially the nothing's taboo part, it's mesmerizing.

I see why this was the one song he transferred from the black album to Lovesexy. And the other lyrics, "Let me touch your body till your rivers an ocean." It's golden.

What are your guys thoughts on this song?
I feel some kind of love 4 U
I don't know your name
This is the kind of love that takes 2
I want U and I'm not ashamed

I think it fits well, especially after the orgy that is the title track. It fits because it actually has a spiritual reference in it, which I'm not sure Prince intended. In the bible, there's a verse that says "marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled". His line of "Nothing's forbidden and nothing's taboo when the 2 are in love" speaks to that, IMO.

What was awkward to me at the time was his delivery of "the actual act" type lines, where he rushes the syllables out. But, it sort of lends to the urgency of the song's message in general.

"eye don’t really care so much what people say about me because it is a reflection of who they r."

Lovesexy is the beginning of the end, if you ask me.

Thankfully they didn't, nor is it the question at hand.

Prince – When 2 R In Love Lyrics

So fair she looked tonight,
The brightest star appeals to your sex.
Before we do anything,
Let me just talk to you.

When two are in love
They whisper secrets
Only they to can hear
When to are in love

When to are in love (love)
Their stomachs will pound
Every time the other comes near
When to are in love

When to are in love
Falling leaves will appear to them
Like slow motion rain (slow motion, slow motion)

When to are in love
The speed of their hips
Can be faster than a runaway train

Drop, drop, drop, drop, water, water, water

Come bathe with me
Let's drown each other in each others emotions
Bathe with me
Let's cover each other with perfume and lotion
Bathe with me
Let me touch your body 'til your river's an ocean
Bathe with me
Let's kiss with one synonymous notion
That nothing's forbidden and nothing's taboo
When the to are in love
L.o.v.e. l.o.v.e can you hear me?

When to are in love
Their bodies shiver at the mere contemplation
Of penetration (let alone the act)
Let alone the actual act

When to are in love
The thought of his tongue in the V of her love
In his mind, this thought it leads the pack

Come bathe with me
Let's drown each other in each others emotions
Bathe with me
Let's cover each other with perfume and lotion
Bathe with me
Let me touch your body 'til your river's an ocean
Bathe with me
Let's kiss with one synonymous notion
That nothing's forbidden and nothing's taboo
When the to are in love
(Love) in love, can you hear me?

(hold me)
(yeah)
(just like that)
(don't move)
Thanks U 4 this Lovely reminning thread of Loveliness ... yes

Tyka said he wanted to be known as a lyricist and I think this song proves that well.

He gone, he gone...

And on the AMAs Tyka actually said he wanted to be known as the most prolific artist in history. For those unaware (and some are), prolific means creating a huge amount of material in an un-proportional shorter amount of time.

I think, as she said, with 900+ songs released, he's solidified his place in history. MJ worked a lot too, but there's no way he has that much in his vault. No. Way.

I really love the lyrics of the song. Not so much the music, I think Prince composed greater rythms and melodies, but it's still a beautiful song nevertheless.

This song is the ultimate in sexy (well I don't know, he's got a lot like that but this is one of my faves lol). It's incredible how he combines the explicit ("penetration", etc) with the romantic in this one.

Admission is easy, just say you believe and come to this place in your heart... <3

This is one of my favorite Prince songs ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!I love the singing, the music everything. One of Prince most under appreciated songs!!! I just hate that the Lovesexy cd is on track. Lucky for my I have this on vinyl{not 180 g}.

Beautiful, Loved and Blessed

Thank You Prince
