Jay-Z - The Roof
It wasn`t raining yet
But it was definitely a little misty
On that warm November night
And my heart was pounding
My inner voice resounding
Begging me to turn away
But I just had to see your face
To feel alive
And then you casually walked in the room
And I was twisted
In the web of my desire for you
My apprehension blew away
I only wanted you
To taste my sadness
As you kissed me in the dark
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendour of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
And so we finished the Moet
And I started feeling liberated
And I surrendered as you took me
In your arms
I was so caught up in the moment
I couldn`t bear to let you go
So I threw caution to the wind
And started listening to my longing heart
And then you softly pressed your lips to mine
And feelings surfaced
I`d suppressed for such a long time
(And I was lifted)
And for a while I forgot
The sorrow and the pain
And melted with you as we stood
There in the rain
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendour of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendour of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
Last night I dreamed
That I whispered the words
I love you, boy
And touched you so very subtly
As we were kissing goodbye
(Pretty baby, how I`m missing you)
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendour of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendour of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendour of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendour of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
But it was definitely a little misty
