? About Solo on the album COME

Who wrote the lyrics, Prince or David Henry Hwang? I thought I had read somewhere that Hwang wrote the words, and Prince sang and put the music to it.

thank you for the info. Very nice lyrics. I hope people realize Hwang's substantial authorship of this track.

wow, thats really cool, prince isnt know for good collabs but that song is brilliant, to be honest i always thought prince did it cos the lyrics are so personal (i thinkt hey can be easily related to prince).

he has several songs on loneliness and the like, so when you hear "so low, the kerb looks like, a skyscraper" it seems really 'real', if you get me. like 'there is lonely' on the vault album
