Lyrics and music by Badu and Stephen Marley. Production by Badu, Marley and James Poyser.
A beautiful duet from Erykah Badu and Stephen Marley about love, feelings and compassion. This track comes right after “Orange Moon”, another love themed song on Mama’s Gun.
[Intro: Stephen Marley]
*Scat*
And she says she needs more than a friend
That's all I ever been, yo
Well one day you gon' overstand (*scat*)
And I remember the first time that we met, yo
How could I forget ya?
When you smiled
And I turned and I said to you
"Yo, you pure and true."
[Hook: Marley]
I'm in love with you, in love with you
I'm in love with you, in love with you
I'm in love with you, in love with you
I'm in love with you, in love with you, yeah
I'm so in love baby
I don't care what your mama say
Standing in love lady
And I don't care what your sister say
(*Scat*)
I need ya
[Badu]
He said he's really diggin me
I don't know what to say
I can't imagine why I feel so weak, say, say
That's when he took my heart in his hands
And kissed it gently
He open up his lips then said this poetry:
[Hook: Badu]
"I'm in love with you, love with you
Love with you, love with you
Love with you, love with you
Love with you, love with you
I'm so in love baby
I don't care what your brothers say, no
I'm so in love baby
I don't care what the people say."
[Marley & (Badu)]
Well I try and I try, and I try and I try
(And I try and I try, and I try and I try)
[Marley]
And you said you need more than a friend
That's all I've ever been yo
Well one day you gon' overstand (*Scat*)
[Badu]
And when I look In your eyes
I know that you were meant to be
My solider so baby come on
I mean it desperately
[Hook: Marley & (Badu)]
(I'm in love with you, love with you)
I'm in love with you, in love with you
(No see I'm in love with you, love with you)
No, no, no I'm in love with you, in love with you
[Marley & (Badu)]
(I'm so in love baby
I don't care what the people say)
I'm so in love lady
And I don't care what your teacher say
(I'm so in love baby
I don't care what the writers say)
*Scat*
(I try, I try, I try
I try, I try, I try)
(You in love with me)
You in love with me
(No you in love with me)
No, no, no you in love with me
(No see you in love with me)
No, no, no you in love with me
(No you think you in love with me)
No, no, no you in love with me
(I know you're in love with me)
No, no, no you in love with me
(Alright I'm in love with you)
Yes I'm in love you

And I'm in love with you
