Prince

Because I turned my eye toward you
Because I seek your hand
Every other woman envies you,
And me, every other man
A massive circle of jealousy
Is coming round again
Those prickly fingered scallywags
That masquerade as friends
Make a promise this very night
That they will no longer pose
A threat to either one of us
Then let the chapter close
For all the midnights, in the world
This one will serve us better,
If you choose to be my girl
Like Zuzu's petals,
A wonderful life, the two of us shall lead
The children of the future've all the
Spiritual food they need
The secrets that the ones before
With grace, they've come and shown
2gether with love 4 one another
We shall make them known
With the love and happy days
With the love I have these days
I number the grains of sand
Writing twelve times ever more
If I could be your man
Amethyst and rubies
Crystals and black pearls
I trade them all, just to spend with you
All the midnights, in the world
All the midnights, in the world
