Four Letter Word - Raheem DeVaughn

I taste sweet melodies

Every time I kiss you

I yearn and toss and turn

Every time I find myself missin' you

And rain-falls don’t sound as wet

Don’t feel as wet when I ain’t inside of you

Your skin is soft as silhouette

At the stroke of my finger tips

'Cause I hope you’re not the prototype

But the makings of the real deal

See, it’s been some time since this came around

So I recognize just what I feel, my old friend’s back

It’s that old four letter word that I feel when I touch you, yeah

(Lemme tell you what it is)

It’s that old four letter word that I taste when I kiss you, yeah

It’s that old four letter word that I recognize, so familiar, yeah

It’s that old four letter word, love, love, love, love, love, love

(I got to spell it out, L O V E, love)

I feel sexy and confident

When I illuminate in your eyesight

I feel speechless and spellbound

So, what’s the use of even tryin' to put up the fight

I let down all my guards

You persuaded me when you did the same

I?

m throwin' in all my cards

I found a higher ground, a higher plane

See, it’s been some time

I know where you been, I been waitin' on ya

But welcome back

I hope you?

re here to stay, here today

I always hear about, sing about

Even write about ya, talk about ya

(There was a time I was sure I had)

Just know I had till ya slipped away

But not this time, no, no

It’s that old four letter word that I feel when I touch you, yeah

(That feels so good inside)

It’s that old four letter word that I taste when I kiss you, yeah

It’s that old four letter word that I recognize, so familiar, yeah

It’s that old four letter word, love, love, love, love, love, love

(L O V E, got to spell it out)

This time

This time

This time
