I imagine this as a kinda ‘70s soul song (I love soul) perhaps sung by somebody like Al Green.. ___________________________ Sweet Jane (Call On Me) Out of the blue sweet sweet Jane I got some designs on you I got some money in my pocket and firecrackers under my shoes baby I gotta move so if you're ever bored, call on me sweet sweet Jane Straight through the eyes sweet sweet Jane you've got me hypnotized you've got water for a thirsty man and all your heartbreaks memorized honey I gotta fly so when your man leaves town, call on me sweet sweet Jane Sweet Jane sweeter than a treat absolutely neater than neat you fill my days with sugar rush reverie nowhere else I'd rather be than wrapped in the calm waves of your embrace the outline of each moment finger traced I'll say it plain stay beside me always, sweet Jane Out of the blue sweet sweet Jane I got some designs on you I got some money in my pocket and firecrackers under my shoes baby I gotta groove so if you need a good man I want you to call on me and I’ll be there sweet sweet Jane sweeter than a treat absolutely neater than neat you fill my days with sugar rush reverie nowhere else I'd rather be than with you "Put your ear down close to your soul and listen hard" -Anne Sexton |

nowhere else I'd rather be than wrapped in the calm waves of your embrace the outline of each moment finger traced I'll say it plain stay beside me always, sweet Jane ——————————————————— You come up with the most endearing phrases. The calm waves and finger traced ....takes my breath away. You did good soul man, You always do. |

Souls, Yes..wonderfully written, love the line "you fill my days with sugar rush reverie" it rolls out easy & beautiful, along with others too. I agree.."Al Green'.or 'Usher', & currently 'Rozier'..who has that blusey R & B kind of voice..especially on 'Movement'. Enjoyed.. Sky~ |
