Drops of Rain
Jon B Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I listen to your body when it's talkin'
Conversation so deep with your soft skin
Me and you together, scorpio magic
Stuck on it and I'm making this a habit
Make me wanna detail up the ride for you
Or maybe get dressed fresh and nicely just to
Take you out on the town and spend a stack of lute
Callin' this love, cause I'm loving you
'Til your body gets enough, I'ma keep on tonight
Give me all the goods like your treasure's mine
We'll love (freezing cold?) watch it fall from the sky
Drip, drop, it's falling down
Drip, drip, listen to the sound
I can hear it fallin' fallin' down, down
Chorus:
Like drops of rain fallin' on your face
Your love can blow a storm away
You can make it rain when you're lovin' me
I can make it rain when I'm lovin' you babe
Like it's pouring rain, it's fallin' on your face
Love can rock your body like a hurricane
I know just how to love you, you know how to love me
You know how to love me baby
Verse 2:
Like kisses on your neck when I'm smilin'
Laughin' bout what you know, ain't no jokin'
You and me together, something so classic
Stuck on me and you're makin' me your habit
You make a brother wanna copy keys for you
Put you in your own whip that's not a lease, no
Ain't no limit to the dreams that I see
But I'd love to turn the dream into reality
Callin' this love, cause I'm loving you (right)
'Til your body gets enough, I'ma keep on tonight
Give me all the goods like your treasure's mine
We'll love (freezing cold?) watch it fall from the sky
Drip, drop, it's falling down
Drip, drip, listen to the sound
I can hear it fallin' fallin' down, down
Chorus
Like drops of rain fallin' on your face
Your love can blow a storm away
You can make it rain when you're lovin' me
I can make it rain when I'm lovin' you babe
Like it's pouring rain, it's fallin' on your face
Love can rock your body like a hurricane
I know just how to love you, you know how to love me
You know how to love me baby
You can make it rain when you're lovin' me
I can make it rain when I'm lovin' you babe
Like it's pouring rain, it's fallin' on your face
Love can rock your body like a hurricane
I know just how to love you, you know how to love me
You know how to love me baby
