Jill Scott - Love Rain lyrics
on me down on me 4x
met him on a thursday
sunny after
noon cumulus clouds 84 degrees
he was brown deep
said he wanted i
to talk about my mission
listen to my
past lives word
took me on long
walks to places where butterflies rest ez
talked about moses and mumia repa
rations blue colors memories of shell
top adidas
he was fresh like summer
peaches
sweet on my mind like block
parties and penny candy
us was nice
and warm
no jacket no umbrella
just warm
at night we would watch
the stars and he would physically give
me each and every one
i felt like
cayenne peppa
red hot spicy
i felt
dizzy and sonya heaven and miles
between my thighs
better than love
we made delicious
he me had
had me he
he had me tongue tied
i could hear his rhythm in my thoughts
i was his sharp his horn section his
boom and his dip
and he was my
love
love rain down on me
on me down on me
the rain was fallin' and and slowly and
and sweetly and stinging my eyes and i
could not see that he became my
voodoo priest
and i was his faithful
concubine
wide open wide loose like
bowels after collard greens
the mis
take was made
love slipped from my
lips dripped down my chin and landed
in his lap and us became new
now
me non clairvoyant and in love
made the coochie ez and the obvious
invisible
the rain was fall in' and i
could not see the season changing and
the vibe slipping off it's axis
our
beautiful melody became wildly stac
cato
the
rain
was
fall in'
and
i
could
not
see
that
i
was
to
be
plowed
and
sewn
and
fer ti lized
and
left
to
drown
in his sunny afternoon cumulus
clouds 84 degree melody
love rain down on me
on me down on me 2x
wide open wide loose the mistake
was made love slipped from my lips
and dripped down my chin and land
ed in his lap and us became new me
not clairvoyant and in love made me
the fool
you were never true
if you
didn't want me aw you should have
let me know
all you did was make a
mockery of somethin' so incredible
beautiful
i honestly did love you so
love rain down on me
on me down on me 4x
