Tyson - I Want You Back lyrics

(Verse 1) Yeah we need space ma, but don't about face Let our feelings cultivate a better time and place It's a disgrace if we let this fall apart This ain't a race, we'll take our time and rediscover one another's heart I miss you so much, it's time to grow up I bet you're like "It's about time this guy has showed up What was the hold up?" well, I got depressed I put my faith in fiction and I wound up getting stressed But it's a new day, I've got a new vision I've got a new apartment, marble countered kitchen I've got some new habits and broke the bad ones So get a little closer baby and let's have fun Starry nights, cool breeze along the sea shore Our love's a treasure that was buried on the sea floor It's time to resurface and take it to the top If we can start again I promise you won't want to stop (Poem 1) Love one another, but make not a bond of love Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls Fill each other's cup, but drink not from one cup Give one another your bread, but eat not from the same loaf Sing and dance together, and be joyous But let each one of you be alone (Verse 2) I respect your space like it's private real estate But if you take my hand get ready for a real escape To new possibilities and new ways of living Never selfish, cause we'll always do a whole lot of giving To those in need either culturally or socially Can't you see this is the way it is supposed to be? This ain't a joke to me. It is not a game This is not about delusions of obtaining fame This is about life. It is about love And it's the fact we fit together like a hand in glove I'm a romantic love, and I respect you I can't believe some things we said, I'm so regretful But now that's dead and gone. Exemplified through song Let's do it right, don't fight the feeling it is too strong We'll save it like a coupon, turn it into gold Can you feel the sunlight, cause we've made it through the cold Come home! (Poem 2) Even as the strings of a lute are alone Though they quiver with the same music Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping For only the hand of life can contain your hearts And stand together, yet not too near together For the pillars of the temple stand apart And the oak tree and the cyprus grow not in each other's shadow Kahlil Gibran
