the fresh perspective...

This is one of my favorite love songs.  Gearing up to Valentine's makes me think of love and my wedding.  This was the song that Ogo and I had our first dance to.  Many thanks to him for making it happen!  The lyrics are all I ever want him to know.  Enjoy!  That's the fresh perspective... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JREcKmXDeAs

"Turn Your Lights Down Low" (feat. Bob Marley)

Turn your lights down low And pull your window curtain Oh let the moon come shining in Into our life again Saying ooh, it's been a long, long time I got this message for you girl But it seems I was never on time Did I wanna get through to you girl? On time, on time I want to give you some love I want to give you some good, good loving Oh I, oh I, oh I Yeah I want to give you some good, good lovingTurn your lights down low Never ever try to resist, oh no Let your love come shining in Into our lives again And ooh, I love you And I want you to know right now Ooh I love you And I want you to know right now That I, that I I wanna give you some love I wanna give you some good, good loving Oh I, oh I, oh I I wanna give you some good, good lovingLoving you is a like a song I replay Every three minutes and thirty seconds of every day And every chorus was written for us to recite Every beautiful melody of devotion every night It's potion like this ocean that might carry me In a wave of emotion to ask you to marry me And every word, every second, and every third Expresses the happiness more clearly than ever heard And when I play them, every chord is a poem Telling the Lord how grateful I am cause I know him The harmonies possess a sensation similar to your caress If you asking then I'm telling you it's yes Stand in love, take my hand in love, God blessI want to give you some good, good loving I want to give you some love I want to give you some good, good loving Oh I, oh I, oh I I wanna give you some good, good loving

the fresh perspective...

LOVE Can I just say that Lauryn Hill and I broke up a few months back (we had a terrible fight, ask me about it if you really wanna know...) and since then I've been thinking...

Anyone that knows me knows that I love LOVE.  I like everything about it and I especially love songs about love.  The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill might be one of the best love albums of my life.  I know that's a heavy statement but, it's true.  Her voice, the lyrics, I'm touched.

I've been listening to her since we got back together and would like to share one of my faves off that album.  To all of you lovers out there, carry on.  To those of you still searching, this one's for you.  That's all, that's the fresh perspective...

"Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You"

You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off of you. You'd be like heaven to touch. I wanna hold you so much. At long last love has arrived. And I thank God I'm alive. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off of you.

Pardon the way that I stare. There's nothing else to compare. The sight of you leaves me weak. There are no words left to speak. But if you feel like I feel. Please let me know that it's real. You're just too good to be true. Can't take my eyes off of you.

I need you baby, and if it's quite all right, I need you baby to warm a lonely night. I love you baby. Trust in me when I say: OK Oh pretty baby, don't let me down I pray. Oh pretty baby, now that I found you, stay. And let me love you, oh baby let me love you, oh baby....

I need you baby, and if it's quite all right, I need you baby to warm a lonely night. I love you baby. Trust in me when I say: It's OK Oh pretty baby, don't let me down I pray. Oh pretty baby, now that I found you, stay. And let me love you, oh baby let me love you, oh baby....
