Prince is the second album by Prince, released on October 19, 1979. It was a quickly written album in reaction to his debut For You. The album needed to have hits and sell well to make up for the blown budget on his first release. Worries were stifled with the success of the lead single "I Wanna Be Your Lover", which reached #1 on the R&B chart and nearly broke the top 10 on the pop chart.

I Wanna Be Your Lover
Prince Lyrics
I ain't got no money
I ain't like those other guys you hang around
It's kinda funny
But they always seem to let you down
And I get discouraged
'Cause I never see you anymore
And I need your love, babe, well
That's all I'm living for, yeah
I didn't want to pressure you, baby
But all I ever wanted to do
I wanna be your lover
I wanna be the only one that makes you come running
I wanna be your lover
I wanna turn you on, turn you out
All night long, make you shout
Oh, lover, yeah
I wanna be the only one you come for
I wanna be your brother
I wanna be your mother and your sister, too
There ain't no other
That can do the things that I'll do to you
And I get discouraged
'Cause you treat me just like a child
And they say I'm so shy, yeah
But with you I just go wild, ooo ooo ooo
I didn't want to pressure you, baby, oh
But all I ever wanted to do
I wanna be your lover
I wanna be the only one that makes you come, running
I wanna be your lover
I wanna turn you on, turn you out
All night long make you shout
Oh, lover, yeah
I wanna be the only one you come for, yeah

@Shunta Hawthorne Iโm glad Iโm not the only one who thinks that heโs surely wore his sign both sides of it

@rckmisfits26 Prince was 100%. He put a male actor out of his house for staring at him too hard. Donโt spread rumors.

Isnโt that the truth, always thought he was sexy as hell when I was a teenager, now I look at him and he seems feminine or metro sexual at best ..... and he is STILL one of the sexiest men I have ever seen!!!!!
