Keepin' it Natural Songtext
von Michael Franti

When we first meet Hollywood couldn′t have writ
another script better than this
zoom and close up on the first kiss
this was a feeling in my body you know
ecstasy love scenes on the picture show
with your best foot forward you know
showing all the things that I want you to know
now it seems like them two dreams we can't realise
real life, real real life
showing its head bobbing big real strife
expectations, missed appointments, disappointments, arguments
flares up, feels rough
do it up I know we grow


(chorus)
It ain′t logical it ain't even in what you know
It ain't factual
keepin′ it natural
lets stop making it difficult
even when its sexual
let it flow gradual
keepin′ it natural

At times like this I want to brush away all of confusion
just to let you know that we can find a solution
motion or roller coastin' its hard to keep your heart open
saying things you later regret
through it all I′ll never forget
how on the telephone we'll be talking so much
you saying things that would make the operator blush
the way you′re whispering I hope nobodies listening
you make my body wet like Lake Michigan
it's never sex that leaves a weight on my chest
every time we′re together like the day that we met
oh yes I wait for only you until death
more precious than breath I'll always protect

(chorus)

I don't want to stop being with you
I never stop needing you
or believing in you
I thank you for the things you do
