Six String

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 amplified

Something 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 fly

Everytime 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 magnetized

Something 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 fly

I 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. 😆

above all of the noise (have you ever longed?)

To walk barefoot on a beautiful beach with me
Holding hands on the sandy shores of an endless sea?

To watch me lift your fallen spirits with a little joking?
To let me wrap your wounds when you’re broken?

To lean on my shoulders when times are hard
And to safely let down your innermost guard?

To talk openly of your most secret thoughts and desires
And to have someone to tend your hot inner fires?

To be romantically wrapped in my loving arms
Or to simply succumb to my sweet and tender charms?

To feel alive and electrified as I gently caress your skin
Or to feel my warmth from deep within?

To share life’s many wonders, sorrows and joys
And to hear my song of love above all of the noise?
