Reportedly adapted from “Cease to Exist,” a song written for the Beach Boys by Charles Manson, who had befriended the band, particulalry Dennis Wilson. Notably, the Beach Boys changed Manson’s original lyric “cease to exist” to “cease to resist” to tone it down.
The story of this song inspired the...
[Verse 1]
Cease to resist, come on say you love me
Give up your world, come on and be with me
I'm your kind, I'm your kind, and I see
Come on, come on, ooh, I love you, pretty girl
My life is yours, and you can have my world
I'm your kind, I'm your kind, and I see
[Chorus]
Never had a lesson I ever learned
I know I could never learn not to love you
Come in, now closer
Come in, closer, closer, closer, ahhhh
[Verse 2]
Submission is a gift, give it to your lover
Love and understanding is for one another
I'm your kind, I'm your kind, and I see
[Chorus]
Never had a lesson I ever learned
I know I could never learn not to love you
Come in, now closer
Come in, closer, closer, closer, ahhhh
[Outro]
Ahhh-ahhh-ahhh-ahhh-ahhhhhh
Ahhh-ahhh-ahhh-ahhh-ahhhhhh
