When Doves Cry - Prince

(Speaking) What we gonna do right here Is take you way back Way back into time My man Ginuwine For all y'all people out there Bobby to the speaker It's sung by me Now, Ginuwine speaking Dig if you will the picture Of you and I engaged in a kiss The sweat of your body covers me Can you my darling Can you picture this Dream if you can a courtyard An ocean of violets in bloom Animals strike curious poses They feel the heat The heat between me and you How can you just leave me standing? Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold) Maybe I'm just too demanding Maybe I'm just like my father too bold Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied) Why do we scream at each other This is what it sounds like When doves cry Touch if you will my stomach Feel how it trembles inside You've got the butterflies all tied up Don't make me chase you Even doves have pride How can you just leave me standing? Alone in a world so cold? (World so cold) Maybe I'm just too demanding (maybe maybe) Maybe I'm just like my father too bold (too bold) Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied) Why do we scream at each other (why) This is what it sounds like When doves cry Ooh ooh ooh - baby How can you just leave me standing? Alone in a world that's so cold? (a world so cold) Maybe I'm just too demanding Maybe I'm just like my father too bold (you know, you know he's too bold) Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied (never satisfied) Why do we scream at each other (why) This is what it sounds like When doves cry

Growing up I seen depression be my trending topic I told my mirror 'stop it' Brady under pressure I been passing out of pockets I wipe blood from these eye sockets My deacon deal with his demons He roll up more Christian woods than the Rockets All this for some sympathy, Tou love crying for empathy But never cry for help maybe he Love living in misery Or maybe he don't feel them at all Maybe he only mark his wrist so you would give him a call What you doing when your doves cry Doing when your love die When devil playing darts and he can't seem to miss the bullseye All I see is red, feel like I'm living through the bull's eye I swear I hate the devil, but I'm scared that I don't love God What you doing when your doves cry So I cry too, to remind you I'm alive too So I cry too, to remind you Call just give me a call Just ask a nigga how he feeling if you love me at all I been standing at the edge and I been tempted to fall I know your memory's a mist and I get lost in the fog I once was deep in that abyss and I don't miss them at all Crazy when I'm deep in that dirt is when I'm closer to God I know sinners that be posing like they Christians to y'all Shit I know sinners that be Sinning in some Christian Dior I got some niggas in that dirt, victim Kalashnikov They split his Adam with some Silver if commissioner calls Tried to paint my mom the picture and spilled blood on my walls They stomped my nigga teeth out they really bloodied his jaws All for jaw jacking niggas out his weight class A scantron said he wasn't shit, now he hate class I know that life a lens but it look different through the stained glass Did my own things, razor to my feathers God I've been clipping my own wings Doves cry, when your love die When devil playing darts and he can't seem to miss the bullseye All I see is red it's like I'm living through the bull's eye I swear I hate the devil, but I'm scared that I don't love God What you doing when your doves cry So I cry too, to remind you I'm alive too So I cry too, to remind you I'm alive too
