What about this one?

Allegiance


In my sleepin’ R.E.M. state, U are on my mind, love
If I’m workin’, if I’m playin’, U’re with me all the time, love
Your languid body, how it moves me mysterious ways, yeah
If I’m happy or if I’m sad, it moves me every day, love

Baby, whatever U got, don’t stop it
Honey, U’re makin’ me hot and I want it
I’m in a deep blue funk but I like it
I’m addicted 2 your junk and I’m dyin’

Every day, love, at 6:30 my body gets so cool
I shiver madly, girl, I’d glady be your night time fool, love
All the honey and all the cash that this world has 2 give
Couldn’t compare 2 one strand of your hair - girl, I wanna live (with U)

Baby, whatever U got, don’t stop it
Honey, U’re makin’ me hot and I want it
I’m in a deep blue funk but I like it
I’m addicted 2 your junk and I’m dyin’, dyin’
Girl, I’m dyin’

Smooth hands, cocoa tan
Your biggest fan I am
More than any man, I can and I will until time stops
Or whatever U got discontinues

So 4 U and all that is good and true
I hereby state my allegiance
4 U and all that is true
I hereby state my allegiance
{repeat phrase in loop}








Released on the album: Howard Hewett - Allegiance (1992)



Composed by Prince

Produced by: Tommy LiPuma

Arranged by: Ricky Peterson



Recorded at Paisley Park in October, 1991.

If I Was Your Girlfiend




"Look at the bargains over here, ladies..."
If I was your girlfriend
Would U remember 2 tell me all the things U forgot
When I was your man?
Hey, when I was your man
If I was your best friend
Would U let me take care of U and do all the things
That only a best friend can
Only best friends can

If I was your girlfriend
If I was your girlfriend

If I was your girlfriend
Would U let me dress U
I mean, help U pick out your clothes
Before we go out
Not that you're helpless
But sometimes, sometimes
Those are the things that bein' in love's about
If I was your one and only friend
Would U run 2 me if somebody hurt U
Even if that somebody was me?
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be
Please

If I was your girlfriend
If I was your girlfriend

Would U let me wash your hair
Could I make U breakfast sometime
Or then, could we just hang out, I mean
Could we go 2 a movie and cry together
Cuz 2 me baby that would be so fine

If I was your girlfriend
Baby can I dress U
I mean, help U pick out your clothes
Before we go out
(If I was your girlfriend)
Listen girl, I ain't sayin you're helpless
But sometimes, sometimes
Those are the things that bein' in love's about (sugar)

Sugar do U know what I'm saying 2 U this evening? (sugar)
Maybe U think I'm being
a little self-centered (if I was your girlfriend)
But I, I said I want 2 be (sugar)
all of the things U are 2 me (sugar)
Surely, surely U can see (if I was your girlfriend)
{{title repeated in background}}
Is it really necessary 4 me 2 go out of the room
just because U wanna undress?
I mean, we don't have 2 make children 2 make love
And then, we don't have 2 make love 2 have an orgasm
Your body's what I'm all about
Can I see U?
I'll show U
Why not?
U can think it's because I'm your friend I'll do it 4 U
Of course I'll undress in front of U!
And when I'm naked, what shall I do?
How can I make U see that it's cool?
Can't U just trust me?
If I was your girlfriend U could
Oh, yeah, I think so
Listen, 4 U naked I would dance a ballet
Would that get U off?
Then tell me what will!
If I was your girlfriend, would U tell me?
Would U let me see U naked then?
Would U let me give U a bath?
Would U let me tickle U so hard U'd laugh and laugh
And would U, would U let me kiss U there
You know down there where it counts
I'll do it so good I swear I'll drink every ounce
And then I'll hold U tight and hold U long
And together we'll stare into silence
And we'll try 2 imagine what it looks like
Yeah, we'll try 2 imagine what, what silence looks like
Yeah, we'll try 2 imagine what silence looks like
Yeah, we'll try…

"PAISLEY PARK"

written by Prince, released on Around the World In A Day (Warner Bros./Paisley Park Records 1985)

1 2, 1 2 3
Woo!

There is a park that is known 4 the face it attracts
Colorful people whose hair on one side is swept back
The smile on their faces, it speaks of profound inner peace
Ask where they're going, they'll tell U "Nowhere"
They've taken a lifetime lease on Paisley Park

CHORUS:
The girl on the seesaw is laughing
4 love is the color this place imparts (Paisley Park)
Admission is easy, just say U believe
Then come 2 this place in your heart
Paisley Park is in your heart

There is a woman who sits all alone by the pier
Her husband was naughty and caused his wife so many tears
He died without knowing forgiveness and now she is sad, so sad
Maybe she'll come 2 the park and forgive him
And life won't be so bad in Paisley Park

CHORUS

See the man cry as the city condemns where he lives
Memories die but taxes he'll still have 2 give
(Who?) Whoever said that elephants were stronger than mules?
Come 2 the Park and play with us
There aren't any rules in Paisley Park

CHORUS {x2}
(Paisley Park is in, yeah, your heart)

Your heart (Your heart)
Paisley Park


"...looking 4 the Ladder..."

"Brother dear brother,
I came as quickly as I could
The Digital Haze is broken,
The Banished Ones r gone 4 good,
gone 4 good"
Now there must b a wedding
Now there must b a feast
A feast, a feast
A smorgasbord at least
A brunch, a munch
Of cake if just a piece

Not just a vat of chitlins
Or turkey meat u c
We r what we eat
So we must eat a leaf
We'll dine under a tree
Unless it snows!

The Holy River

Let's go down 2 a Holy River
If We Drown then we'll be delivered
U can still see the picture upon the wall
One eye staring at nothin' at all
The other one trying to focus through all u'r tears
U can try and try but there's nothin' 2 hide
U can run from yourself and what's inside
U got 2 find the answers 2 the questions that u most fear
So over and over u ask u're soul
Why did u come down 2 a world so cold
The voice inside says "2nite, the truth will be told"
Surrounded u'reself with all the wrong faces
spending your time in all the wrong places
Putting your faith in things that only make u cry
People say they love u when they want 2 help
But how can they when u can't help u'reself
The more they say they love u
The more u just wanna die
So here we go again-the self analysis
Have another glass of port and forget this
The band's playin at the club tonight and they're bound 2 groove
There U are U think U're high
U can't ask u'reself cuz u'd only lie
If U had a dollar for every time U tried
U can't call nobody cuz they'll tell U straight up
come and make love when U really hate'em
Relationships based on the physical R over and done
They're over and done
U'd rather have fun
With only one...with only one...only one
And then it hit 'cha like a fist on a wall
Who gave U light when there was none at all?
Who gave the sun permission 2 rise up everyday?
Let me tell it...
If U ask GOD 2 love U longer
Every breath U take will make U stronger
Keepin' U happy and proud 2 call his name...
(gon, say it) JESUS
Over and over, U ask u're soul
Why'd u come down 2 a world so cold
A voice inside says "2nite, the truth will B told"
This time I was listening, hear me...
Let's go down 2 a Holy River
If we drown then we'll be delivered
If we don't then we'll never see the light
If U die before U try
U'll have 2 come back and face the lie
Cause when U believe it, U got a good reason 2 cry
So I went on down 2 the Holy River
I called my girl and told her i had something to give her
I asked her 2 marry me and she said YES...I cried
That night I drowned in her tears and mine
instead of a glass of sorrow or wine
Looking back ya'll, i don't miss nothing except for time
and when i see that picture upon the wall
The one eye staring at nothing at all
My eyes try to focus, but these are much different tears
Let's go down to the Holy River
Let's go down to the Holy River
Let's go down to the Holy River
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

OK this is a really cheesy post... but I felt the need to post these lyrics because I love them...

Close your eyes, sweet baby
Now don't u cry
Everybody gets their heart broke
Sweet baby, sometime
So he left u for another fool
Yes, a fool
4 lovin' him from the start
Ask yourself what's more important
Him or the broken pieces of your heart sweet baby

Stand tall, (tall)
Sweet baby, (baby)
Don't u fall
U ain't the only one gettin' beat down
It happens 2 us all
The road u chose 2 walk in this life (the road u choose 2 walk in this life)

Is one that leads into the next
So sweet baby, stand tall (sweet baby, stand tall)
stand tall (sweet baby)
Sweet baby, hold your tears back now
Better days gonna come your way soon, oh yeah sweet baby
Someway, somehow

(sweet baby)

Sweet baby

Walk faster, sweet baby
Don't let those bad boys catch u now
Those things that they will have u do
U been done known better, oh, and how
How can u sleep knowing that u and a fool
Sing in the same key
Walk faster sweet baby (walk faster)
Strive 2 be the very best that u can be (strive) (sweet baby)
Sweet baby
Oh, sweet baby

Sweet baby, hold your tears back now
Better days gonna come your way soon
Oh yeah, sweet baby, someway, somehow

(sweet baby)
Sweet baby
Better days gonna come your way, yeah


I LOVE these lyrics also...great song!! nod

U know U're good, girl
I think U like 2 go down
U wouldn't have stopped but ah...
I came on your wedding gown

And U said - "I must confess, I wanna get undressed and go 2 bed"

With that, I jammed
U fool, U married me instead!
Now morning, noon, and night I give U...

so profound... lol

Lovesexy [Controversy Music, ASCAP - 1988]

New Power, New Power, give it 2 me
Oh, it need some bottom in here... lay it on me

(hey now, hey now)

Everybody on the block say it is the best
The most vital is what they say, more or less
It put my name upon my thigh
It makes me dance, It makes me cry
And when I touch it race cars burn rubber in my pants

chorus:
This feeling's so good in every single way
I want it morning, noon and night of every day
And if by chance I can not have it - I can't say
But with it I know heaven's just a kiss away
Kiss away

Dig me now

Anyone that's ever touched it,
they don't want anything else (no they don't)
And I got 2 tell the world,
I just can't keep it to myself
All in life becomes easier,
no question is unresolved
And I'm not afraid

Come on and touch it, I know U will love it
With it I know that heaven's a butterfly kiss away

chorus

Lovesexy

Lovesexy

Rain is wet, sugar is sweet
Clap your hands, stomp your feet
Everybody, everybody knows (Lovesexy)
When love calls, you got 2 go

Lovesexy

Tonight we make love with only words
Girls first, girls first
OK so like first I'll start by telling U how
Intelligent a curve your behind has
And then I can tell U that I can just smell U
And race cars burn rubber in my pants
But I really dig trippin' on the thought of
Being caught by someone with your beauty, style and grace
Baby I don't care I would rip out my hair
4 just 2 nights with your face
I don't want to make love 2 U
I just want 2 look at U
I just want 2 listen 2 U

Oh, pretty little whip, you got me drippin'
Drippin' all over the floor, the floor
If I come back as a woman, I want a body like yours
A body like yours

Living rooms
I think... I think you would
I think U wanna play house
Yeah, I think U wanna play house

Lovesexy

You don't mind
I think you... uh...
I think you want me to (beep) inside of you
Yea...yeah... I...

U want (Lovesexy) me to s...suck around your living room
Ha Ha
Yeah, U...U want me to walk right down your halls

mmm hmmm
Lovesexy

U want me to swivel in your love seat
Don't U baby?

U want me to write my name on your walls
U want me to write my name

Lovesexy
We make love with only words
I'll make love to you, tomorrow

Sweet dreams

Soul Sanctuary

Loving U in silence, knowing that it's right
Under your gaze I ponder this love 2night
Unbothered by the chaos swirling 'round outside
In your arms is where I want 2 live and die
Someplace where your face is all that I see
Where the love we make intoxicates intensively
In a mirror where your sweet reflection used 2 be
There is hope, there is joy, my soul sanctuary
My soul sanctuary

Loving U in silence, neverending kiss
Under your gaze I can peacefully exist
Sanctuary, baby, nothing compares 2 this
In my darkest hour U can be my bliss (Bliss)

All of me I give 2 thee down at your feet
The reassurance in your rhythm speaks 2 me
Over and over your screams are like a prayer
In the dark, U are there (U are there), my soul sanctuary
Ooh, my soul sanctuary

Loving U in passion unmolested in this garden
Mango and nectarine, sweet honeydew, I beg your pardon
My mouth runneth over from ecstasy
It's true (it's true), baby, I love the taste of U

Loving U in silence, knowing that it's right
Under your gaze I ponder this love 2night
Unbothered by the chaos swirling around outside
In your arms is where I wanna live and die

Someplace (someplace) where your face is all that I see (All that I see)
Where the love we make intoxicates intensively (Intensively)
In a mirror (mirror) where your sweet (sweet) reflections used 2 be
There is hope, there is joy, my soul sanctuary
My soul sanctuary
(My, my, my, my, my soul) My soul sanctuary
Oh, my soul sanctuary
Soul sanctuary
