Romantica - Teena Marie

Romantica

I’ll always be so hopelessly romantic

Just like the wind baby, the earth, the sky

And you and I made magic…

What about me, baby?

Will I live my life alone?

No one to comfort me

Must I sing for everyone?

Was that a kiss I felt

Soft on my cheek just then?

Did you awaken me?

And where did it all begin?

How can I time travel?

Must I encapsulate?

All that we ever were

The sand, the sea, the shore and fate?

I’m riding in your rocket

You crash me back to earth

I cried when Steveland sang

«And do you have angel wings?

"

Romantica

Just like Heaven works of wonders

Two passing ships in the night

Two restless lovers

Romantica

To the stars you must surrender

So take your place as you return to forever

Return to forever, my love… my love

What about you?

Are you

Sleeping with the angels now?

And are you making music?

Did you take a sacred vow

To be an altar boy?

And do you ring the bells?

I hear you’re with your mother

Yes and she too is well

I have my memories

As I lay here in my bed

Oh how we danced those nights

On those days when we were wed

I’m happy for you now

So happy that you’re free

Ours was an epic tale

Sung through eternity

Romantica

Just like Heaven works of wonders

Two passing ships in the night

Two star-crossed lovers

Romantica

Now your soul you must surrender

So take your place

As you return to forever

Return to forever my love… my love

They say I’ll see you again but I know

That’s intangible

Why must I keep wanting things that I know

Are not haveable?

Why is the earth so still?

Is it that surreal?

Has your cup been filled?

Will I grow old gracefully?

Romantica

I’ll always be so hopelessly romantic

Just like the wind, the earth, the sky

And you and I were magic…

Romantica

I’ll always be so hoplessly romantic

Just like the wind, baby, the earth, the sky

And you and I made magic
