Rock And Roll Love Affair
Prince · Other Songs - Prince
He believes the voices coming from his stereo.
He believed in rock 'n roll.
She left the past and those lily white fences
And headed out to Hollywood in
Search of her soul,
But she had to pay the toll, yes she did.
They were bound to find each other
He need proof, she needed a brother
That's when stars collide
When the space for what you want
And your heart is open wide.
He gave up women for the stripes of the road,
Learned the meaning of grace,
That's when his cup overflowed.
And she said: Hello!
He said: my faith may seem I'm willing
But you know that I'm able
It doesn't rule my life to sit at your table.
She says: it's tight, but I think I can fix your head.
This kind of love don't come from a prayer
It Ain't talking rebound, born of despair.
Yellow sun rising on their bodies in bed
Two people in love, with nothing but the road ahead.
Oh yeah, oh oh.
Alright!
Oh oh oh ooh ooh.
Let's go!
She believes in fairy tales and princes,
He believed in jazz with rhythm and blues
And this thing called soul,
He believed in rock 'n roll.
She wanted to see her name appear on the big screen,
He just wanted her to scream his name.
Can you scream my name?
Do you know what I mean!
This kind of love don't come from a prayer
It Ain't talking rebound, born of despair.
Yellow sun rising on their bodies in bed
Two people in love, with nothing but the road ahead.
