Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis
State of Attraction
Our conversation ought to remain
Between two people
What does it mean?

“You’ll never know just what can [?]”
“Don’t be afraid, he might be the one”
Speak to me, conscience
Tell me what to do
Should I listen to my heart?
What’s my next move?

[Chorus:]
I thought a chill came over me
And then I knew it had to be
All the symptoms of first degree state of attraction
I’m getting feelings that consist
Of all the love that I have missed
So how can I resist this state of attraction?
Don’t know if I can change my mind
I’ve been alone for quite some time
Curiosity is piquing my state of attraction
If I take a chance, I wonder if
There’s another woman on his list
Am I the only one who feels this state of attraction?

[Bridge:]
It’s not a key desire
It’s something so much higher
I don’t know yet
It’s been so long
Sometimes you forget how it really feels to love
[Chorus]

[Ad-Libs:]
There’s something so much higher
It’s not a [?]
Don’t know if it’s [?]
Haven’t been in love so long
I’ve been missing all the love that you’ve been giving
Don’t know if I can change my mind
Been alone for quite some time
