<center>This is a song that's captured my heart for so long. I really think it's beautiful. It's called "Lovers Only" by Maxwell. He has a EXTREMELY beautiful voice. Especially doing "Woman's Work". But anywho, this is it:
This ain't for the ones,
that just love for fun,
that just love and run,
that just hold the gun.
This is for...
Those that bleed,
that want, but have no need.
This ain't for the war.
This is only...
For lovers only.
Lovers only, yeah.
Strictly for the lovers only.
Oh, all lost and lonely.
Ever since the way that you looked at me,
love is not a want, love is now a need.
This is if you want to hold me.
Or, for lovers only.
Not for the easy.
This ain't 'bout that style.
This about a take it day by day.
This about a wait that's worth it baby.
Ever since the way that you looked at me,
love is not a want, love is now a need.
Not just 'cause I got nobody.
This is only...
For lovers only. (lovers)
Lovers only, yeah.
This is for the lovers only.
Oh, all lost and lonely.
Ever since the way that you looked at me,
love is not a want, love is now a need.
This is for the lovers only.
For lovers only...
Lovers only...
Lovers only...
Beautiful, no? Sometimes, it doesn't make sense to me, but I think it's the way that he sings it that captures my soul and keeps it there to stay forever. It's really sweet. That one "Woman's Work" and "All Alone", by this lady-who commited suicide shortly after creating the song-are my favorites.
