Nikki Giovanni
The Way I Feel
[Verse 1]
I’ve noticed I'm happier
When I make love
With you
And have enough left
Over to smile at my doorman

[Verse 2]
I've realized I'm fulfilled
Like a big fat cow
Who was just picked
For a carnation contentment
When you kiss your special place
Right behind my knee

[Verse 3]
I'm as glad as mortar
On a brick that knows
Another brick is coming
When you walk through
My door

[Verse 4]
Most time when you're around
I feel like a note
Roberta flack is going to sing
[Verse 5: Nikki Giovanni + background vocals]
In my mind you're a clock
And I'm the second hand sweeping
Round you sixty times an hour
Twenty-four hours a day
Three hundred sixty-five days a year
And an extra day
In leap year
Cause that's the way
That's the way
That's the way I feel
About you
That is the way I feel about you
That is the way I feel about you

[Verse 6: Nikki Giovanni + background vocals]
I’ve noticed I'm happier
When I smile
'Cause that’s the way I feel
I'm as glad as mortar
On a brick that knows
Another brick is coming
'Cause that's the way I feel
I'm content
When you kiss your special place
'Cause that's the way I feel
That's the way I feel
I feel
I feel
I feel about you
