SINGER: Prince

SONG:When U Love Somebody

I was the one sleepin' all alone
when u were at the party
i was the one waitin' by the phone
when u were with somebody
now here u come again with your heart in your hands
confessin' all of your sins, yeah
the same tired line that i've heard a dozen times
but still i've got 2 give in
Chorus:
cuz when u love somebody
every now and then it might rain
when u love somebody
with every sun shower there's pain
whenever something's lost, something's gained
when u love somebody
when u love someone
U were the one lookin' 4 some action
i was just lookin' 4 u
"who needs love when u got protection"
quote, unquote your point of view
all my partners say that i need 2 dismiss ya
until they see u smile (such a pretty smile)
all them fools are buggin' cuz they just want your lovin'
in the backseat, huh, 4 a little while (but i don't care)
Chorus
(when u love somebody)
(might rain)
Yeah, yea
Check me out on the floor
so what, u got me open
yeah, do your dance
but i'm the one u're dancin' 4
And u know this
round and round, don't stop it
and u know this, yeah, yeah
up and down, u got it
Cuz when u love somebody (when u love somebody)
every now and then it might rain (now and then it might rain)
when u love somebody
with every sun shower there's pain
(baby, a little pain, a little pain, yeah)
whenever something's lost, something's gained
(every now and then u got 2 think about what u gain) (think u
don't?)
When u love somebody (yeah) (when u love somebody)
every now and then it might rain (might rain)
when u love somebody (pourin' down, down on me)
with every sun shower there's pain (come on, wet me rain)
whenever something's lost, something's gained (something's
gained)
when u love somebody, yeah
When u love somebody {x7}
(so sweet)
(it's complete)
well (so nice)
(it's paradise)
Round and round, don't stop it
Round and round, don't stop the pounds
cuz a brutha gettin' down here lately
freedom agrees with us all, u see
in a state of mind that's weightless
see, on the quantum tip i flipped on the notion
when the adam split, we got eve
duality's now a groupie with a backstage pass
and they ain't gonna leave till they get some
from grace we fall
referring 2 the objects on the wall
i'd picture my hat, my coat, my balls
around and round (round and round) {x2}
huh, don't stop the pounds (don't stop the pounds)
yeah, cuz a brutha gettin' down here lately
Mm
