"THE BREEZE" lyrics

We should sink into the season
I've been drinkin' for no reason again
AC went out last weekend
I've been staying at The Holiday Inn
Late July had me bursting at the seams
I've been sweating bullets baby, and the water deep
Last night rolling like the mighty Mississippi
And I saw you come alive feeling August in the city

You're my honey gold, my Tootsie Roll
You're my sense of home, my cornerstone
If you got love let it show, I gotta know
Got to know

I can feel the heat again
Cobalt center of my dreams again
It's magnolias in the streets
Love is in the breeze again
(Feels like, feels like, feels like)
It feels like one hundred three (Damn)
The way you're looking at me
Stop taking me for a fool
I know I can't be that cool (Can't be that cool)
Turn all my thoughts into pools
You run around them, no rules
Hell or high water, I'm tryna turn all my faults into tools

You're my honey gold, my Tootsie Roll
You're my sense of home, my cornerstone
If you got love let it show, I gotta know
(Got to know, got to know)

I can feel the heat again (Heat again)
(I can feel it, I can feel it)
Cobalt center of my dreams again (The center of my dreams again)
(My dreams again)
It's magnolias in the street (Love's in the breeze)
Love is in the breeze again

Just, it was anything out of the norm
Like the trees were actually those tall trees that had bent into the ground
And that's when you get up and you say "Let me put on some clothes because we're gonna be running for our lives"
Three hundred six thousand people
More than half residents of Memphis in the dark tonight
Homes with no air conditioning
I couldn't move
Why not?
It was scary
Really?
And my mama told me when we were little that to always be still when the Lord's doing his work
