paroles de chanson The Answer (Includes 1:30 of Silence) - Raphael Saadiq

Dream on
Dream on

Stop saying the game is sold and not be told
Try to help the child that's only 4 years old
Why, why would you sit back and relax
And watch them kids fall off the tracks?

How, how can we sit on the sideline and watch it go down?
You, you need to make someone feel really proud
Rhythm is the key, can't you see?
Just don't do it for publicity

I, I was the boy in the little picture
Always asking questions but never getting really good answers
So I screamed out loud and said
Please give them the answers
Give them the answers
They need the answers

Some people ask me how is life for me
Growing up in a dark pretty city
It was scary but life was good
See in my neighborhood
In my neighborhood
In my neighborhood, oh-oh
In my neighborhood

It's all coming back to me now
See, when I was growing up
There was a lot of people raising me
I didn't know at the time
But I listened to everything I heard

Every man, every woman
Every teacher, every preacher
Yes, I listen to
And you gotta do the same things
Oh yes, you do, oh-ohh

March to the drums, look all around you
Help somebody find their way (oh-ooh, yeah-eh)
We gotta show 'em the way
Do it today, show 'em the way

Show them the way
Don't let them find out the hard way
Show them the way
Show them (oohh)

Mama you told me, you were coming over Sunday
To feed me my favorite meal, that's you
With just one teaspoon, you fill me up
I'm so glad this love is really real

See, I'm so thankful, thankful for you
Was left in cold but now I have the proof
That you are more than beautiful and I know I'm right
One look at you and girl, and I melt inside

You're surely a blessing, not in disguise
The truth is standing right before my eyes
'Cause you are answer to all, to all my prayers
I've been patient, girl, I'm so prepared

To walk down this road, just me and you
Girl, every step I'm gonna show my love to you
Wanna be perfect, now you know I've tried
To make you happy till the day I die

I've got this feeling, this feeling inside
Look in my eyes, girl, you know I can't hide the truth
'Cause you know me better than I know myself
So you know I'm really into you

I send my love to you, baby

Let me make sunflowers bloom your way
Add some color to your grayest day
(Could you love me like the love you say?)
Love me like you love yourself
Then we won't need nobody else, oh no

Larry Graham

One of these days, we're gonna both sit back
And think about our first walk and dance
Doors have been closed, you scooted and screamed
This kind of love will never see you feet

You see I'm so tall and too over you
So proud to be in these new shoes, my dear
Darling love, you're gonna pick me up
I don't think I'll ever be in love

Let me make sunflowers bloom your way
Add some color to your grayest day
(Can you love me like the love you say?)
Love me like you love yourself
Then we won't need nobody else, oh-no
(Let me love you like you love yourself)
