[Intro]
(Ragtime piano chords sliding in)
(Upright bass walking a smoky groove)
(Mmm, yeah, yeah)
(Ski-bi-di-bop-bop, let's swing it!)
(Seven minutes, seven seconds, baby)
(Listen close now)
[Verse 1]
In light of everything, I'm still in love with you
Keep thinkin' I gotta stay in touch with you
Seven minutes to seven seconds is all we have in this game
A quick ramble to "I'll call you back, boo," but the fire's still the same
But I'm still in love, yeah, I'm still in love with your touch
Always and forever, baby, I need you way too much!
(Always and forever!)
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, the days turn to weeks, the weeks turn to months in the haze
And I'm still counting up the hours, lost in this beautiful daze
I keep holdin' to the thought that we will finally be together
Weathering the storm, no matter the winter weather!
(Ski-bi-di-bop, let the brass swell!)
[Beat Drop]
[Chorus]
Holdin' to the thought, that we will be together! (We'll be together!)
Again, again, again, oh baby, again and again! (Oh, hold on!)
Never-ending hustle and bustle, day turns to weeks
But I still think of you every day while my quiet heart speaks!
I'm still in love, yeah, I'm still in love with you tonight!
Walking hand in hand, stepping straight into the light!
[Verse 2]
No matter how much you scream and yell, you can't bring me down
I'm stronger than you think, I'm made thick as a wall in this town!
No words can tear me down, I've been through the worst in the dark
But I'm sweeter than pie, and my Lord is protecting my spark!
I can do anything through Him, move past this by His grace
Standing my ground on bended knee in this holy place!
(In this holy place, mmm!)
[Bridge]
It's up to me to make the next move, we either make it or break it
Our love will cease to end, but I don't want to forsake it
Is it selfish that I want you all to myself in the dark?
Never want to share the love you give to my sacred spark!
(Shoo-wop, let the trumpet slide back in!)
[Chorus: Acapella to Beat Drop]
[Acapella]
Holdin' to the thought, that we will be together...
Again, again, again, oh baby, again and again...
[Full Force Drop]
Never-ending hustle and bustle, day turns to weeks
But I still think of you every day while my quiet heart speaks!
I'm still in love, yeah, I'm still in love with you tonight!
[Outro]
So I cried to you... (Cried to you)
I ran to you, I hid from you...
I looked at you, I laughed with you, I held on to you.
I made love to you, and now I miss you, oh baby.
There is no place for me to go, I am what I am.
Come back to me... I'm still in love.
(Ski-bi-di-bop-bop... fades out)
[Fade Out]
