African Prince

I saw you from a distance and i could not fight the resistance To go over and touch I felt my hand reachin out yet i remained still.. I know you felt me last night at the party As my eyes caressed Every inch of you all night My feelings so careless From a far But I remained still.. A brush of your touch something rare as such I thought it could never be but you walked passed me Leavin' an air of you Cologne And yeah, once again I remained still... For I'm an African woman and it is not my place to talk About the longin' I feel And about the troubles you put in my heart... African Prince can you feel me? Can you feel my love, that powers the power in me Yet remains so dormant waiting to be unleashed.. To a whole new world That only you can reveal....
