3) The '90s R&B trio Silk was one of the many groups to arrive from that genre in the wake of classic Motown and during the heyday of their native Philadelphia scene.

Not to be confused with 90's R'n'B Silk.

Silk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Until the end of time, I'll be there for you
You are my heart and mind, I truly adore you
If God one day struck me blind, your beauty I'll still see
Love's too weak to define just what you mean to me
From the first moment I saw you, ooh, I knew you where the one
Tellin' you just how fine you look, in a word, you were sex
All of my cool attitude you took, my body was next
You made love to me, like you where afraid
Was you afraid of me? Was I the first?
Was I your every fantasy? That's why
Until the end of time, I'll be there for you
You own my heart and mind, I truly adore you
If God one day struck me blind, your beauty I'll still see
Love's too weak to define, just what you mean to me
And when we be makin' love, I only hear the sounds, ooh, ooh, ooh
Heavenly angels cryin' up above, tears of joy pourin' down on us
They know we need each other, they know you are my fix
I know that you know, ain't cheatin', baby
They know this is serious, ain't in just for kicks, no
This condition I got is crucial, crucial, baby
You can say that I'm a terminal case
You could burn up my clothes, smash up my ride
Well, maybe not the ride
But I got to have your face, all up in the place
I'd like to think that I'm a man of exquisite taste
A hundred percent silk Italian imported Egyptian lace
I say, nothin' baby, I said, nothin' baby can compare
Nothin' could compare to your lovely face
To your lovely face
Know what I'm sayin' to you this evening
Tryin', tryin' to say, just tryin' to say
That until the end of time, I'll be there for you
Be there for you
You're my heart, you're my mind
I truly adore you, darlin'
Ooh, you don't know what you're mean to me
Until the end of time be there for you
You are my heart and mind
Truly I adore you
The lyrics to Silk's song Adore speak of a deep and intense love for someone that will last until the end of time. The singer proclaims that they will always be there for their love interest, describing them as their heart and mind. Even if they were to go blind, they would still see the beauty of their loved one. The love is too strong to be defined by words, as it goes beyond what can be expressed with language.
The singer recounts the first time they saw their love interest, knowing that they were the one. They confess that they rapped to their love interest all night, telling them how fine they looked. They were so enraptured that their cool attitude was taken away, and they succumbed to their desires. The love they made was so intense that heavenly angels above cried tears of joy. The singer is so devoted to their love that nothing could compare to their lovely face.
