lyrics
I realize, that nothing lasts forever
but it doesn’t really matter no
if your soul is not free to be with me
then it doesn’t really matter no
I spoke to you for an hour
and it seemed to me
that if you could set your mind at ease
your emotions would follow free
if you could set your mind at ease
sink or swim would you let me
oh would let me in I said sink or swim
oh could let me would you let me in
you’re not an island it’s true
but I’m not sure that I can
that I can convince you
I wasn’t born yesterday
but I’m sure that you’re gonna do things
you’re gonna do them your own way
I’ve been around a mile or two
but I’m not sure that I can
that I can convince you
I wasn’t born yesterday
but I’m sure that you’re gonna do things
you’re gonna do them your own way
(repeat chorus)
I beg you would tell me one thing I don’t understand,
I don’t understand
if you feel like lovin’ me
why don’t you set that ole emotion free
project your love
and lay an image right down on me
and if you could I beg you would
tell me one thing I don’t understand
I don’t understand
if you feel like lovin’ me
I said go on go on go on
and set that ole emotion free
I beg you, I beg you would tell me
one thing I don’t understand,
well if you feel like lovin’ me
I said set that old emotion free
chorus
but it doesn’t really matter no
if your soul is not free to be with me
then it doesn’t really matter no
I spoke to you for an hour
and it seemed to me
that if you could set your mind at ease
your emotions would follow free
if you could set your mind at ease
sink or swim would you let me
oh would let me in I said sink or swim
oh could let me would you let me in
you’re not an island it’s true
but I’m not sure that I can
that I can convince you
I wasn’t born yesterday
but I’m sure that you’re gonna do things
you’re gonna do them your own way
I’ve been around a mile or two
but I’m not sure that I can
that I can convince you
I wasn’t born yesterday
but I’m sure that you’re gonna do things
you’re gonna do them your own way
(repeat chorus)
I beg you would tell me one thing I don’t understand,
I don’t understand
if you feel like lovin’ me
why don’t you set that ole emotion free
project your love
and lay an image right down on me
and if you could I beg you would
tell me one thing I don’t understand
I don’t understand
if you feel like lovin’ me
I said go on go on go on
and set that ole emotion free
I beg you, I beg you would tell me
one thing I don’t understand,
well if you feel like lovin’ me
I said set that old emotion free
