Description
Thick, like an evening after rain, this sound stretches lazily, as if it knows its worth. The bass isn't in a hurry - it's just walking, leaving a trail of vibrations and heat. Everything in this rhythm breathes thru the body: the velvety voice, the notes that don't sing but touch. The music doesn't press - it looks you straight in the eye, calmly and with a slight smile, like someone who knows they're right, even in silence. Every second here smells of wood, sweat, and something a little sinful. It lacks pretension - only the confidence that feelings don't need to be explained, they are enough to be lived. And somewhere between sound and silence, that feeling is born: when you can stretch time with your fingers like a string and hear life beating.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Oh no
Oh no, oh no
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
I know some things have changed since, the last I've seen you
Some good, some for the bad, baby, bad baby
All and all I can't complain that's what I've been through, baby
But seeing you reminds me of the precious times we've had
And I wondered all this time 'bout how you been
And I hoped by chance, I'd see you once again
I'd love to kiss your lips, baby, once again
I'd love to hold you tight, girl, one mo' gin, gin ohh
Yeah yeah yeah, ohh
I know you got someone and I got somebody too
But I'm unhappy and I miss the shit we used to do, yeah
I miss your smile, your mouth, your laughter, baby
Never bumped into your kind before or after
(And i wonder) and I wondered all this time 'bout how you been (said I've been wondering)
And I hoped by chance I'd see you once again (would it be alright)
I'd love to kiss your lips, baby, once again (oh yeah)
I'd love to hold you tight, girl, one mo' gin, gin oh
Uh yeah
I know you gotta be gettin' back to your own thing
Baby, you got yours I got mine
I hope you know that you could call me, girl, if things change (yeah yeah)
If you want to we could catch up on some lost time
And I wondered all this time 'bout how you been
And I hoped by chance I'd see you once again
I'd love to kiss your lips, baby, once again
I'd love to hold you tight, girl, one mo' gin, gin I
