Al Green I’m Still In Love With You (via holysoul)

_______________________________

At times like this when it’s late at night, the windows are open permitting a gentle breeze to come through and wash over me as I lay in bed listening to soulful hearts whispering their intentions, I remember my past loves.

One in particular comes to mind, as they have been a lot lately, and if we were at the right place at the right time at some point in our lives I’d have this song played through word for word.

To the one love that I’ve had who is the only one of their kind,
You know this already, and though it may mean nothing to one/both of us and worse still, though it is almost painful to speak the words instead of keeping them locked up…
I’m still in love with you.  —MCCXXI

Spending my day thinkin’ ‘bout you girl
Being here with you, being near with you
I can’t explain myself
Why I feel like I do
Though it hurts me so to let you know that I
look in your eyes to let me know
How you feel
Let me know that love is really real
And it seems to me
that I’m wrapped up in your love

Don’t you know that I’m
(Still in love, in love with you)
Sho’ ‘nuff in love with you, hey

And I look in your eyes
And all the years I see
Me lovin’ you and you lovin’ me
Well it seems to me
that I’m wrapped up in your love

Don’t you know that I’m
(Still in love, in love with you)
Sho’ ‘nuff in love with you

Hey, ah-ha, ah, ah, ah, ah
Hey, ah-ha
Don’t you know that I’m

(Still in love, in love with you)
Sho’ ‘nuff in love with you
Say I try it if you want me to
Ah-ha, ah-ha, aah, ah, ah, ah
