Brown Skin - Lyrics by India-Arie


Lyrics
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends

Brown skin, up against my brown skin

Need some every now and then:oh hey:


Where are your people from? Maybe Mississippi or an Island

Apparently your skin has been kissed by the sun

You make me want a Hershey's kiss, your licorice


Every time I see your lips, it makes me think of honey-coated chocolate

Your kisses are worth more than gold to me
I'll be your almond joy, you'll be my sugar daddy


Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends

Brown skin, up against my brown skin

Need some every now and then:oh hey:


Every time you come around, something magnetic pulls me and I cant get out

Disoriented, I cant tell my up from down

All I know is that I wanna lay you down


Every time I let you in, abracadabra magic happens as we swim

Higher and higher finally we reach heaven

Come back to earth and then we do it all again

Yeah:..


Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends

Brown skin, up against my brown skin

Need some every now and then:oh hey:


Skin so brown, lips so round

Baby how can I be down?

Beautiful mahogany, you make me feel like a queen
Tell me what's that thing you do that makes me wanna get next to you, yeah


Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends

Brown skin, up against my brown skin

Need some every now and then:oh hey:


Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends

Brown skin, up against my brown skin

Need some every now and then:oh hey:
