Lyrics

[Intro]
Let me holler at you for a minute
[Instrumental]
Yeah
Can I talk to you? (Can I talk to you?), uh
Can I talk to you? (You) Yeah
(Can I talk to you? Can I talk to you?)
For a minute, yeah (Oh, you)
Can I talk to you? (Can I talk to you?)
Can I talk to you? Yeah, uh (You, you)
Can I talk to you?
(Can I talk to you?)
Yeah, you, you
[Verse 1]
I want you 'cause you make my heart skip the beat that I drum to
I want to be the one you run to when the pain confronts you
You're everything, sometimes I get nervous when I'm in front you
You can hear it in my voice when I ask you if you comfortable
Look how love do, I'd practice the Art of War for you like Sun Tzu
Come through and arouse you every morning like the sun do
If you black out and collapse, I want to help you to come to
Notice I haven't yet got into what I want from you
I want you to come to when I come through and make you shine like the sun do
I want you to be the valley for my river to run through
You're everything, send your soul through your lips to my heart
Sweet music'll start, I want you to be the muse for my art
When people try to rip us apart, we gotta work to stay together
Go through the seasons of love and never change with the weather
This is my wish list, what I want, not what I need, there's a difference
These days I'm learnin' that words got power, so I'ma be specific
Word
[Instrumental]
Can I have a talk with you?
[Instrumental]
Can I make a dream come true?
Can I be in love with you?
'Cause I would (I would) if I could (Yeah)
Oh (Yeah, baby, can I?)
[Outro]
Yeah, sunflower
You must live in that infinite black that exists when I close my eyes
I see you when I fall asleep, I see you when I dream
Say (Lil' darlin')
Set your soul on fire (Lil' darlin')
(I wanna talk to you)
Be your one desire (Lil' darlin'), little darlin'
Can I talk to you? (Lil' darlin')
Yeah (Darlin')
Little darlin' (Lil' darlin'), little darlin'
Can I talk? (Lil' darlin') Can I talk?
Can I talk? Can I?
Lil' darlin' (Lil' darlin', can I talk to you?), ooh-oh
Lil' darlin' (Lil' darlin')
(You ain't gotta believe it, I'll show you) Lil' darlin'
(Let me talk to you)
Can I talk to you? (Lil' darlin') Yeah
[Instrumental]
Set your soul on fire
