Every Time He Comes Around - Minnie Riperton

Every time he comes around, I feel like I’m on fire

When he looks into my eyes and sees down to my soul

It’s so hard for me to tell if this is just desire

Or the love I need to make my spirit whole

How am I to know?

Now I ain’t looking for a man to hold me for an hour

I ain’t looking for a man to love me for a day

Every time he comes around, I get the funny feeling

What I’m looking for don’t matter anyway

Hey, it don’t matter anyway

'Cause every since I was a child

I dreamed about my baby’s smile

It scares me so to say

I wanna be with him in the worst darn way

'Cause every time he comes around, I feel like I’m on fire

When he whispers in my ear, I start to lose control

Still it’s so hard for me to tell if this is just desire

Or the love I need to make my spirit whole

How am I to know?

'Cause every since I was a child

I dreamed about my baby’s smile

It scares me so to say

I wanna be with hiim in the worst darn way

'Cause every time he comes around, I feel like I’m on fire

Mmmm, I lose control

Still it’s so hard for me to tell if this is just desire

Or the love I need to make my spirit whole
