Eclipse
Nujabes Feat. Substantial Lyrics

This is for the things I don't say enough,
Expressing my love through music for the things I don't say enough.

Waiting for the day we touch
Anxious for the day we finally reunite and touch.

Your lips to mine eclipse solar lunar
Our kiss is so powerful it eclipses even the sun and moon.

I'll see you soon but I'll talk to you sooner
Can't wait to see you, but until then I'll talk to you on the phone.

Do you honestly believe I'd turn my back on you and leave my true love all alone in this cruel world?
I would never abandon you, and I work hard every day to build a better future for us.

Cause it IS all about you, It's been all about you
My love and focus has always been on you.

Seconds feel like millenniums when I'm without you,
Time moves so slowly when we're apart.

But my momma said there be days like this and ain't jack we can do that's the way life is.
My mother taught me that life can be tough, but we have to accept it.

But it's been weeks since I felt your lips and I'm a fiend for my queen so I need a fix,
I'm addicted to your love and it's been too long since our last kiss.

Only for now I'll settle for these talks on the phone,
Until we reunite, I'll have to make due with phone conversations.

But I cut my arm off for a moment alone,
I'd do anything just to be with you for a moment.

With the one that I cherish whether in Rome or Paris, Amsterdam or Japan,
I hold you close to my heart no matter where we are in the world.

Please note that I am thinkin' bout my baby as much as humanly possible,
I think about you constantly, every waking moment.

An' I know you're frustrated cause life has too many obstacles
I understand you're struggling with the hardships life brings.

My dear my dear my dear I know you're lonely
I know you're feeling lonely without me.

An' I know very well that it's hard and it hurts but there's no need to cry,
I empathize with your pain and want to comfort you.

Cause I will be home soon and there ain't no limit to the things that we goin' do,
We have a bright future ahead of us and endless possibilities.

Whatever you want name it and I'll make it reality,
I'll do anything to make your dreams come true.

To see my baby's face nothin' means more then that for me.
Seeing your face again means more to me than anything in the world.

This is far from flattery I ain't trying to impress you,
This isn't flattery, but my genuine feelings for you.

truth is I miss you and I'm hurtin' internally,
I miss you so much and it hurts deep inside.

Sometimes these long trips feel like eternity,
These long trips feel like they'll never end.

But they say distance makes the heart grow fonder,
Being apart can actually increase one's feelings of love and affection.

And in this case it's proven to be fact,
I can attest to the truth of the saying in our situation.

So I'll be back like a T100.
I'll return to you as soon as possible and with the swiftness of a T-1000 robot.

From blocks away you will see me comin',
You'll see me coming from far away, approaching with excitement.

With the biggest smile you ever seen on my face,
I'll be grinning from ear to ear with the joy of seeing you again.

Cause even the toughest man on the planet needs lovin',
Even the strongest person needs love and affection.

There's nothin' tame the wild like a woman's embrace.
A woman's embrace can bring peace and calmness to even the wildest of men.

Feels like it's been forever and I can't wait to see ya,
It's been so long since our last meeting, and I'm eagerly awaiting our reunion.

It's like wit' Bonnie and Clyde, Tony and Maria, Romeo and Juliet, Akeem, Alicia.
We're as inseparable as famous couples from movies and history.

Basically inseparable and it's more then sexual.
Our bond is deeper than just physical attraction.

Withstand every shell Tell me don't you like the sound of that?
We'll weather any obstacle that comes our way, don't you agree?

Got my heart racing an about to have a heart attack
Thinking about our love gets me so excited I feel like I might have a heart attack.

Wantin' to be loved by you just you.
All I want is to be loved by you and only you.

Theres nobody loves you like I do
No one loves you as much as I do.

And I ain't scared to show it but these feelings are hard to put into words
I'm not afraid to express my love, but sometimes it's difficult to articulate my emotions.

and I'm a poet slash MC
My talent is in music and poetry.

So give me credit for expressing them
Acknowledging the difficulty in expressing my feelings.

because writin' this was more nervous then I ever been
Writing this song made me feel more nervous than I have ever been.

I had to get it out for when I'm unable to sit wit' you,
I wrote this song to express my love for you when we can't be together.

You have a little song that I wrote for you to listen to,
I wrote a special song just for you to listen to when you miss me.

So you know the way that you're missin' me I'm missin you.
I miss you just as much as you miss me.

I wanna give you the world but for now I hope this'll do.
Although I wish I could give you everything, for now I hope this song will suffice.
