"Sicily" lyrics
Kofi Stone & Mahalia Lyrics
Mm, mm, mm
I know love might guide me home
'Cause it's all I know
Yeah, uh, she was the woman that would mirror me
The word's beautiful, and she was the epitome
We went to Sicily 'cause she was in a fit with me
She been to Paris, but she'd never been to Italy
Still I wonder 'bout the wishes they were wishing me
Let's be specific with your feelings, you was missing me
If we don't get the thing together, then we're history
Wasn't my mission to be living with the misery
The sun's beaming, we were sittin' in the shade
I used to think that we would never have it made
I came to know that that would never be the case
Hand on my chest, I need a rest, I need a break
We hit the beach, just so we could see the waves
What if forever want forever to delay?
You know me best, I thought we'd never see the way
For you, I wait forever and a day
Yeah, the sun don't shine unless you're my baby
Only you can save me
Yeah, the sun don't shine unless you're my baby
Wanna lock you in like daisy, baby, yeah
I love her and I never wanna leave her
I need her, the one I wanna feature
Praise God, baby girl, I'm a believer (Ah)
It's you and me, there's a lot I wanna teach ya
We'll bring your car while we listen to Aretha
Sit with the stars while we listen to the speaker (Uh-uh)
And we embarked on the pyramids of Giza
I'm wondering if I should get a visa (Ooh)
Yeah, I shoulda said it, but I know I was afraid
To say I love you, we was on the same page
It's kinda funny, 'cause we got the same ways
Before your dinner know you gotta say grace
I traveled 'round and ended up the same place (Same place)
Till I discovered we we was not the same age (Same age)
A couple troubles but the troubles ain't fazed
I'm glad we're movin' at our own pace, yeah
Yeah, the sun don't shine unless you're my baby
Only you can save me
Yeah, the sun don't shine unless you're my baby
Wanna lock you in like daisy, baby, yeah
You are everything, everything I've ever wanted
You're all I need (You're all I need, you)
I know love might guide me home
'Cause it's all I know (Oh, oh)
You are everything, everything I've ever wanted (Wanted)
You're all I need (You're all I need)
I know love might guide me home
'Cause it's all I know
You're all I need
I know love might guide me home
'Cause it's all I know
Yeah, uh, she was the woman that would mirror me
The word's beautiful, and she was the epitome
