Sweet Thing

Chaka Khan

I will love you anyway
Even if you cannot stay
I think you are the one for me
Here is where you ought to be
I just want to satisfy ya
Though you're not mine
I can't deny it
Don't you hear me talking baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy


Oh sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Oh sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Yes, you are

I wish you were my lover
But ya act so undercover
To love you child my whole life long
Be it right, or be it wrong
I'm only what you make me, baby
Don't walk away, don't be so shady
Don't want your mind, don't want your money
These words I say, they may sound funny, but...

You are my heat
You are my fire
You make me weak with strong desire
To love you chile my whole life long
Be it right, or be it wrong
I just want to satisfy ya
Though you're not mine
I can't deny it
Don't you hear me talking baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy

You're my heat, you are my fire
You're not mine, I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talking, baby?
Love me now, or I'll go crazy

Love songs, so romantic and surface, often leave out the messy bits and details that cause people to part ways and no longer be able to see eye to eye.

One day, I'd like to have someone write a song about processing relationships, about holding a person accountable to their actions, about community presence not to reinforce a person's inability to deal, but to support them to heal and to get clear.

Now, that would be a song I'd buy and promote 24/7. ;)

These songs mean a lot to me. Somewhat. I heard these songs growing up. They spark emotions, bring back memories, surrender me to thoughts and feelings I hadn't had in a while. I think music has changed...music used to be made to move....used to have some depth. I dont know about now.

I think that song "Gotta Be" might be one of them.
