My lover's dream is a cave
That anoints itself in its own tragedy
First love like desire of a setting sun
A silence that sings on its own
My lover's name is a secret
I found love in an empty room
It echoed truths I couldn't face
Like silly juice
Made me shake all my burden hues
James blues
That Baldwin
I found love in an empty room
It echoed truths I couldn't face
Like silly juice
Made me shake all my burden hues
James blues
That Baldwin
Summer nights with cold wine
Sweet sigh
It's a love high
I'm not running that way today
Not running that way today
Summer nights with cold wine
Sweet sigh
It's a love high
I'm not running that way today
Not running that way today
I found love in an empty room
It echoed truths I couldn't face
Like silly juice
Made me shake all my burden hues
James blues
That Baldwin
I found love in an empty room
It echoed truths I couldn't face
Like silly juice
Made me shake all my burden hues
James blues
That Baldwin
I found love in an empty room
It echoed truths I couldn't face
Like silly juice
Made me shake all my burden hues
James blues
That Baldwin
Don't fall in love too easily
The beautiful ones, they trick with ease
Don't lose your mind to these emcees
Rhyming's just a sort of release
Release, release
Release
I found love in an empty room, empty room
It made me shake all my burden hues
James blues
James blues, James blues
Under the stars
Laying beside you
You told me tales of your times
Caressed my soul with your softness
Reassured my heart that you were the one
