[Verse 1]
Love is on the way, all I got to say is
It wont let go
You can pray to early May, fast for 30 days
Still it wont let go, oh
Got a good book and got all in it, tried a little yoga for a minute
But it wont let go, oh
Tried to turn the sauna up to hotter, drunk a whole jar of holy water
But it wont let go, oh

[Verse 1]
Love is on the way, all I got to say is
It wont let go
You can pray to early May, fast for 30 days
Still it wont let go, oh
Got good book and got all in it, tried a little yoga for a minute
But it wont let go, oh
Tried to turn the sauna up to hotter, drank a whole jar of holy water
But it wont let go, oh

Now this , folks, is REAL music. As opposed to the CRAP that passes for music these days. My folks used to listen to REAL music like this back in the day, which is probrably why I can't stop listining to this. We grew up with an appreciation for REAL MUSIC something youngsters know nothing about today. I urge all of you with children to listen to REAL MUSIC around your children, that they may grow up to recognize what REAL MUSIC is.

@devilledevil98 there's nothing wrong with that. music is supposed to be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of race.
