“Gift from Virgo” is one of Beyoncé’s most passionate love ballads. Built over a sample of Shuggie Otis‘ song “Rainy Day”, the tune almost resembles a letter in which the singer expresses her feelings.
Shuggie Otis told The Independent about the sample:
Beyoncé sampling two of my songs has kept me...
[Intro]
A gift (A gift) from Virgo (Virgo)
Oh (Virgo)
[Verse]
I wish I could look in your eyes
And tell you how I feel right now, inside
Baby, I know that it's real (Real)
So real (Real), so real (Real), so real (Real)
(I miss you) How I wish I could be with you
(I miss you) How I wish, how I wish
How I wish I could be with you right now
(Be with you right now)
Every morning, every afternoon, every night
I wanna be with you
It don't matter if we go to the park or watch a play
Stay in a hotel room all day, I just wanna be with you
I love everything about you, from your old school tennis shoes
To the way you move when you're dancin' with me
Do you remember our first kiss?
It wasn't long enough
Remember the first time we spent those weeks together?
They were not long enough
All of our conversations, all of your sweet pages
They're never long enough (Ah)
When it's time for me to leave
It's so hard to say goodbye (Ah)
I never wanna say goodbye
I never, ever want to say goodbye (Ah)
[Outro]
One day (One day), we'll make love (We'll make love)
Finally (Finally), I'll be yours (I'll be yours)
Only you (Only you), only you (Only you)
I could love you (Love you)
But it's too late, I already love you (I love you)
I love you (I love you)
I love you (I love you)
I love you (I love you)
