lyrics

Strictly Speaking the language of love
We vanish the anguish above and below
On top of the world, above these clouds
Moving to higher ground
Strictly Speaking the language of love
We vanish the anguish above and below
On top of the world, above these clouds
Looking down

Maybe we pretend it’s the weekend, Grab a beer and settle down
How it washes all away, getting lost in the sound
Sitting on your porch, playing my guitar, Thinking of the world and how it’s so bizarre
Maybe we pretend it’s the weekend, You and I, Strictly Speaking

Jackie Wilson, was never up so high
Like the family stone, I tried to stay sly
Eyes magnetize, thighs hypnotize
tryin to make you realize I ain’t like average guys

I can provide where I’m needed, easily be retreated
Give you space like Armstrong and neil where you’ve seated
King playing the role of jester in front of royalty
Loyalty, a guarantee

Met you at a concert, we had much in common
Rockin jams from Van the Man, Bob Marley we jamming
My Helen of troy, except I’d send more than a fleet
The reason I love losing sleep, the heart behind the beat

And its deeper than coal mines, other diamonds I find
fail to shine fading over time n now that you’re mine
at the bottom of the deep end, you keep me breathing
you and I, Strictly Speaking
