Anna Stesia Songtext
von Prince & The New Power Generation
Anna Stesia Songtext
If you know the words to this song
Sing along
If not, you better ask somebody
Have you ever been so lonely
That you felt like you were the only one in this world?
Have you ever wanted to play with someone so much
You′d take any one boy or girl?
Anna Stesia come to me, talk to me, ravish me
Liberate my mind
Tell me what you think of me, praise me, craze me
Out this space and time
Between white and black, night and day
Black night seemed like the only way
So I danced
Music late, nothing great
No way to differentiate
I took a chance
Gregory looks just like a ghost
Then a beautiful girl the most
Wets her lips to say
"We could live for a little while
If you could just learn to smile
You and I could fly away, fly away"
Anna Stesia come to me, talk to me, ravish me
Liberate my mind
Tell me what you think of me, praise me, craze me
Out this space and time
Maybe, maybe, maybe I could learn to love
I mean the right way
Los Angeles
Perhaps could show me baby
Maybe, maybe, maybe I could learn to love
Ah, if I was just closer to somethin'
Closer to your higher self? I don′t know
Closer to heaven? Uh-uh
Closer to God, yeah, closer to God
Save me Lord, I've been a fool
How could I forget you are the rule
I am your child, oh yes I am your child
From now on, I shall be wild
I shall be quick, I shall be strong
I'll tell Your story no matter how long
No matter, no matter, yeah
We′re just a play in your master plan
Now, my Lord, I understand
Love is God, God is love
Girls and boys love God above
Y′all sing
Love is God, God is love
Girls and boys love God above
(Love is God, God is love)
(Girls and boys love God above)
(Love is God, God is love)
(Girls and boys love God above)
LA! LA! LA! Los Angeles!
No, no, no, no, no, no
Clap your hands, clap your hands
Clap your hands, clap your hands
I heard some of y'all singing the chorus the first time
But I need everybody singin′ the chorus
How many of y'all believe in God?
How many of you worship God?
How many of you know how God wants to be worshipped?
And that′s where the agreement falls down, right?
Twenty churches in a one-mile radius
Everybody's at different churches worship a different way
Oh, we should champion our diversity
We should champion our similarities
Not our differences
We should meet on a higher level
Instead of looking at white, black, rich, poor, young, old
Differences, differences, diversity
Let′s meet, let's meet somewhere higher
Rainbow children, you know what I'm talking about
NPG Music Club, put your hand up
NPG Music Club, they in the good seats
If y′all wanna be down here with us, you′ve got to join the club
Look at you, you're up high, you′re up high
Now I need to hear y'all voices in that same aspect, high
I wanna hear strong, high voices
Singing love is God, God is love
Girls and boys love God above
Can you do that?
Now I play for you, can you do that for me before I go home?
Everybody, show ′em what to do
(Love is God, God is love)
(Girls and boys love God above)
Sing it y'all
(Love is God, God is love)
(Girls and boys love God above)
Sing it like you mean it, c′mon band
Clap your hands somebody
(God is love, love is God)
Now let's give Candy some (girls and boys love God above)
Candy, toodle-doo a bit
That's the groove y′all, that′s the groove
That's how we goin′ home tonight
In harmony and in love
Rise up, let's talk about two words
I said rise up, two words, talkin′ 'bout going higher
Said rise up, if you with me I′m there
Sing it now
Rise up
Oh no upstairs, you and I, sing
(Rise up, rise up)
(Rise up,)
If you want to you go to (Rise up)
You got to (Rise up)
Oh waoh, waoh, waoh, waoh, waoh God
Thank you LA, goodnight
Los Angeles, put your hands together for Renato Neto on keyboard
Rhonda Smith, on the bass
And the man, John Blackwell, on the drums
And on the horns, we've got Greg Boyer, on the trombone
The lady in the middle, for Holland Miss Candy Dulfer
And over there on the saxophone, Najee and Maceo Parker
Oh yeah, on the one
Tonight we got to understands God and his love
He worries about the world
The ordinary nation, the rainbow children
Sing along
If not, you better ask somebody
Have you ever been so lonely
That you felt like you were the only one in this world?
Have you ever wanted to play with someone so much
You′d take any one boy or girl?
