I'd Like to Songtext

von Corinne Bailey Rae

Mhm..mhm..mhm..

Lying with you reminds me of those days
Me and Candice waking up to a heat wave
Mother's in the garden inviting everyone
Ooh, we could pull up our old jeans and go outside
Neighbour's always smiling with the baby on her knee
Mia's sat on the front step getting her hair combed out in weaves
Music, the base is boomin' from the car parked in the street
Got that new song on repeat, oh oh

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to paint a picture for you
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I just like to make a scene
I just like the sympathy

Mh..mhm...mhm..

Growing up we didn't have a lot of money
Used to spend my summer having parties on the drive
Plastic cups for all and punch, eating chicken that's hot and sweet
Oh and the women discussing what love is like, ooh you know the way I mean
And I'm just sitting watching hoping the boys will call for me
Got that new song on repeat, oh oh

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to paint a picture for you
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I just like to make you see that
I desire the simple things

Maybe then I will know I want somebody
Maybe then I used to dream of someone to love
Now you come and you invite me
I know I'm in love

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to paint this picture for you
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I just like to make a scene
I just like the sympathy
I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to paint a picture for you
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I just like to make you see that
I desire the simple things
