Jungle Love was "written by God herself and handed down to the greatest band of all time...". It is simply described as "the mad notes".
Walk
Morris Day and The Time Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On the dark side of the dance floor
Lit a match just to heat things up
But I got more than I bargained for
Mixed drinks mixed feelings of elation
I should have known it was a one night invitation
Just let it go then it's off to find another face
I'll make you come just to watch you leave
You walk around with my heart on your sleeve
Don't sweat it it's over now our time ran out
I took an oath but I'm giving it up
You didn't have to see things my way
Nothing more than a casual ****
Isn't that just how we operate?
Let's drink to feelings of temptation
You and I we're an overnight sensation
Don't sweat it forget it everything is a okay
Just let it go then it's off to find another face
I'll make you come just to watch you leave
I walk around with your heart on my sleeve
Don't sweat it it's over now our time ran out
Outside the brake light's started to dim
I feel the tension that's been pulling us in
And then we do it again so we can feel all right
Falling in love for the night
Don't sweat it forget it everything is a okay
Just let it go then it's off to find another face
I'll make you come just to watch you leave
You walk around with my heart on your sleeve
Don't sweat it it's over now
Our time ran out our time ran out
Our time ran out our time ran out
Our time ran out
The song "Walk" by Morris Day and The Time is a catchy and upbeat dance track that tells the story of a short-lived romantic encounter. The lyrics describe the singer's experience of going to the "dark side" of the dance floor and meeting someone he/she is attracted to. The excitement and thrill are conveyed through the lines "Mixed drinks mixed feelings of elation" and "Let's drink to feelings of temptation". However, as the night progresses, it becomes clear that the relationship is not meant to last, with the singer resigning to the fact that "our time ran out". The lyrics suggest a casual approach to dating and relationships, with the singer seemingly unfazed by the fleeting nature of what they have.
The chorus of the song emphasizes this casual attitude, with lines like "Don't sweat it forget it everything is a-okay" and "Just let it go then it's off to find another face". These lyrics imply that the singer is not invested in the person they are with, and is content to move on to the next encounter. The song's title, "Walk", seems to refer to dancing, but could also be interpreted as a metaphor for moving forward and not dwelling on past relationships.
Overall, the song "Walk" is a fun and upbeat dance track with lyrics that convey a nonchalant attitude towards romantic relationships. The catchy chorus and infectious beat make it easy to dance along to, while the underlying message of not taking things too seriously adds a playful and carefree tone.

By the way, you can watch the official music videos for "Jungle Love" and "The Bird" on the Purple Rain 20th Anniversary 2-Disc Special Edition DVD (that's the reason why I decided not to mention them in my previous comment).

I grew up in the 80's bay area .In those days we were only concerned with being hip, slick and cool and most important getting phone numbers . House parties every weekend, dancing against each other . No violence, no fighting just being as cool as we could be . I miss those days also .
