I Prefer To Keep It Basic

I want to hold you in my arms...
With one thing on my mind!
A holding of 'you',
In my arms.

All that other chatter,
That you want to make matter.
And happening next door?
That is not what I am here for.

I want to hold you in my arms...
With one thing on my mind!
A holding of 'you',
In my arms.

I have no other priorities.
Or nothing else on my agenda.
I cleared my head,
And everything i had deemed important...
To be here with you!

And if it is me you want to be with...
I'm cool with it!
But what your neighbors and friends do...
With 'trips' taken with family members.
And how they do it with flapping lips...
Aint got 'nuthin' to do with me.

Comeon...
Let's you and me,
Spell clarity!
As we allow it to approach us.

I want to hold you in my arms...
With one thing on my mind!
A holding of 'you',
In my arms.

When it comes down to you,
With me in view in a togetherness...
I prefer to keep it basic!
With a minding of 'our' business to get done.
I am not prepared to embrace group relationships.
Not just yet.

In you,
My heart is invested.
And I want us to bond with solid stock.
Knowing what we've got,
Is not determined by the benefit of dividends.
Although...
Our actions are the cause and the effect of them.

And like I said...
I want to hold you in my arms...
With one thing on my mind!
A holding of 'you',
In my arms.

Let me know,
If any of this...
Does not click in your head!
