Lover's Rock
10. Sade Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You are in the music
In the man's car next to me
Somewhere in my sadness
I know I won't fall apart completely
When I need to be rescued
And I need a place to swim
When no one can hear me calling
I have you I can sing to
And in all this
And in all my life
You are the lovers rock
The rock that I cling to
You're the one
The one I swim to in a storm
Like a lovers rock
I am in the wilderness
You are in the music
In the man's car next to me
Somewhere in my sadness
I know I won't fall apart completely
And in all this
And in all my life
You are the lovers rock
The rock that I cling to
You're the one
The one I swim to in a storm
Like a lovers rock
You are the lovers rock
The rock that I cling to
You're the one
The one I swim to in a storm
Like a lovers rock
When I need to be rescued, you're there
When I need a place to swim to in a storm
I think of you
And all my life
And in all my life
You are the lovers rock
The rock that I cling to
You're the one
The one I swim to in a storm
Like a lovers rock

This song brings me happiness along with great heartache. The reason I say this is because my first Son-Joseph, past away 6 years ago. And hearing this song is everything that I would say to him. I miss Joseph endlessly and I thank God for each & every moment when he was here with our family. Thank you God for blessing me with my loving Son in my life. Thank you for allowing me to input my comment. SADE is such a great artist just as her music fills my heart & soul.

God bless your heart. I miss my mum and dad. I’d love nothing more than time with them since they left this world.
