Don't Talk To Strangers...

Listening to Prince again now and this one hit me. Can't play the song but here are the lyrics:

Prince - Don't Talk 2 Strangers

Little darling, gotta go now
Don't know when I'll be coming back
Got my future all planned out
Got my bags packed

Things don't always turn out right
That's just the way it goes
Before I leave you there's just
A few things you should know

Don't talk 2 strangers
Don't forget to say your prayers at night
Remember God, He made you
And one day, He'll make everything alright

Don't cross on yellow
You always got to wait for a green light
Remember God, He made you
And one day, He'll make everything alright, alright

Little darling, gotta go now
Don't worry you'll be just fine
When it comes to good luck
I just know, I just know you'll always be the first in line

Nobody'll ever love you

As much as I do
That doesn't mean other people
Won't love you too

Don't talk 2 strangers
Don't forget to say your prayers at night
Remember God, He made you
And one day, He'll make everything alright

Don't cross on yellow
You always got to wait for a green light
Remember God, He made you
And one day, He'll make everything alright, alright
Make everything alright, alright

Little darling, gotta go now
Got my future all planned out before I go

Don't talk 2 strangers
Don't forget to say your prayers at night
Remember God, He made you
And one day, He'll make everything alright...

Well, I find it strangely comforting, but that's just me, I guess... razz The sound of Prince's voice on this song is very comforting... To me, at least.

It is comforting and I've loved it since first hearing it years ago.

I heard it years before...but now in a different way. Prince always sang about moving on to be with God, even in his early days... For f**ks sake, he even named a song after God... lol

This song breaks me each time I hear it. Don't think I can listen to it without tearing up.

Because of their half-baked mistakes, we get ice cream, no cake; all lies, no truth; is it fair to Kill the YOUTH ~~ Party Up

Man... it's crazy how the meaning of a song, or any form of art, can change over time... this one hits me hard now.

I Love U, But I Don't Trust U Anymore...

This is a Prince song? Why do I just remember Chaka's vocals?
