Until the end of time
I'll be there 4 U
You own my heart and mind
I truly adore U
If God one day struck me blind
Your beauty I'd still see
Love is 2 week 2 define
Just what U mean to Me

With honorable mention to:

I Gotta Broken Heart again
and I ain't got no money to spend
you see I spent it all
on a long distance phone call
Begging her to please come home
Come Home Baby

"Now isn't that a shame that sometimes money buys u everything and nothing...love, it only seems 2 buy a terminal condition of the heart"

"The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof, and horses wonder who u are. Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees, makes u feel like a movie star. They say the 1st time ain't the greatest, but if I had a chance 2 do it all again. I wouldn't change a stroke, cuz baby I'm the most, with a girl as fine as she was then." (Rapsberry Beret)

"U're a sinner, I don't care. I just want ur creamy thighs." (Erotic City)

"Annastesia come 2 me, talk 2 me, ravish me, liberate my mind."

"Dig, if u will, the picture...of u and I engaged in a kiss" (When Doves Cry) - the coolest lyrical intro ever, imo.

"In France a skinny man died of a big disease with a little name, by chance his girlfriend came across a needle, and soon she did the same" (Sign O' The Times)

This could go on all day...these r just off the top of my head, there's so many more!

Here is my favorite Prince verse:

I try to tell my people
There should not be any hatred
For a brother or a sister
Whose opposite race they've mated
No man is God
And God put us all here (yeah)
But this system has no wisdom
The devil split us in pairs
And taught us White is good, Black is bad
And Black and White is still too bad
That's why everytime I turn around
All the people in my neighborhood
Look mad and sing...


This quote comes from the Public Enemy album "Fear of the Black Blanet". It's not a Prince lyric.

I was of the opinion that everyone would already know that it was Public Enemy, but... you are right... it is from "Pollywannacraker" by Chuck D. and the boys.


You have to admit... it sounds like something Prince would say though. :LOL:

He'd probably be made because Prince is describing their private love life.

so long have I gazed n2 your eyes
wondering what they'd look like
on a newborn child
I cannot lie
when my hand is on your thighs
I'm wonderin' is this here the miracle
of where life comes from inside
so long have i listened
to your voice
wondering what it would sound like
coming from a girl or a boy
isn't it funny
how when you're truly in love
that the thought of such things
can give you so much joy

...Okay, it's probably not exactly right. But the lyrics to "Let's Have a Baby" touch me every time I hear them.

"And if the stars ever fell one by one from the sky

Cuz baby, this kind of beauty has got no reason 2 ever be shy
Cuz honey, this kind of beauty the kind that comes from inside"


I have never understood this lyric. I don't know what Mars falling has to do with anything. Can anyone help me understand this?

well, I'm not sure about why the stars and planets are falling from the sky-now that I think about it, it really doesn'y make much sense-it sounds nice though...


???hmmm, anyone?

"Would you run to me if somebody hurt you...even if that somebody was me?"...



Me too!!! eek

But also, in the same vein, from 'Thieves in the Temple':

"Voices from the sky say rely on your best friend to pull you through. But even if I wanted to I couldn't really, truly, cause my only friend is you (oo oo oo ooo, come on)"

And from 'The Space'

"...you are the reason there's bass in my bones, you are the reason I"m high"

'17 Days'

"Here I sit in my lonely room, looking for my sunshine. But all I got is 2 cigarettes and this broken heart of mine"

how can I
get through days
when I can't get through hours?

I could try
but when I do
I see you
and I'm devoured

who'd allow
(who'd allow)
a face to be
soft as a flower

I could bow
(bow down)
and feel proud
in the light of this power

...from "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World." I love that verse.

I really like the lyrics to "I would die for you" especially the part:

"And if you're evil I"ll forgive you by and by..."

I also LOVE the words to Adore... just hearing the opening to that song makes me fall in love!!!

This part from Adore drives me out of my mind everytime:

"When we be making love, I only hear the sound of heavenly angels crying above, tears of joy pourin down on us. They know we need each other, they know you are my fix. I know that you know I aint cheatin baby, they know this is serious I aint fuckin just for kicks. No this confusion I got is crucial, crucial baby. You could say that I'm a terminal case you could burn up my clothes, smash up my ride"

Probably one of my all time faves...

"In every man's life there will be a hangup, a whirlwind designed to slow ya down. It cuts like a knife it tries to get in you, this Spooky Electric sound. Give up if you want to and all is lost, Spooky Electric will be your boss...Don't kiss the beast, be superior at least."

I really like the beginning of Anna Stesia:
"Have U ever been so lonely that U felt like U were the only 1 in this world?"

But I admit "sign 'o' the times" lyrics are the best.

And there will b no death, 4 with every breath,
The voice of many colors sings a song
That's so bold
Sing it while we watch them fall..." (from "7")
