This tender rockin’ love song, ‘Six String’, by Adrian Belew is from his 1998 solo album with the nonsensical name ‘Op Zop Too Wah’.
I saw you the very first time
Built so pretty
You looked just right, uh huh
It was love at first sight
I looked real close
I touched your arm
My heart went off like a fire alarm, uh huh
I was amplifiedSomething happens
When I hold you in my hands
I’m a different man
Something happens
And I lose all sense of time
I can almost flyEverytime I go to pick you up
I feel a little spark in my fingertips, uh huh
I’m electrified
The magic touch
You feel so good
The way you respond to everything I do, uh huh
I’m magnetizedSomething happens
When I hold you in my hands
I’m a different man
Something happens
And I lose all sense of time
I can almost flyI can almost… fly
I love your back, I love your head
But I love it best
When I run
My fingers down your neck
Adrian Belew
What can I say? The guitar is a sexy instrument. I know the feeling. I do. I’ve always had my eye on a sexy 12 string, myself. π
