Testo We Were Rock and Roll - Janelle Monáe
Testo della canzone We Were Rock and Roll (Janelle Monáe), tratta dall'album The Electric Lady
I remember 'round Autumn time
I smell the breeze, I feel the sun
Old memories come back to me
The way we used to dance
The way you clapped your hands
And I remember the smell of guns
War lived in me, but love finally won
I've been delayed, I've been denied
And then you came around and took the crown
We were unbreakable
We were like rock 'n' roll
We were like a king and queen
I want you to know
No matter how the story's told
We were like rock 'n' roll
We were like a king and queen
I want you to know
Yeah
I remember our time alone
One in a dance, locked in your arms
Your melody stays haunting me
We were twenty-one and thought we owned the sun
And I remember our plan to run
My rebel ways and your other nonsense
We'd go insane, but it felt so fun
And now your queen is on to take your throne
We were unbreakable
We were like rock 'n' roll
We were like a king and queen
I want you to know
No matter how the story's told
We were like rock 'n' roll
We were unbreakable
I want you to know
Now help me say it's alright
(It's alright, it's alright)
You help me say it's alright
(It's alright, it's alright)
Say it's alright, alright
(It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright)
Say it's alright
(It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright)
Now help me say it's alright
(It's alright, it's alright)
Ooh, alright
(It's alright, it's alright)
Say it's alright, alright
(It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright)
Say it's alright
(It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright)
Come on, baby, help me sing it louder
Help me sing it louder
Love, love's all I want
We had an incredible, unshakeable, unbreakable love
Yeah, say it's alright
You were my rock 'n' roll
We had an incredible, unshakeable, unbreakable love
Yeah, yeah
(So what are you gonna do?)
Gonna be your rock 'n' roll
(Down in Mexico)
You were just my rock 'n' roll
(Off in Paris, France)
We talked poets out of games
(Back to Tokyo)
Remember sake in Japan?
(When you made the coffee too cold)
And your kisses held the same
(And every time I think of you)
Wanna be your rock 'n' roll
(So what are you gonna do?)
So what you gonna do?
('Cause I remember you)
Because I remember you
(You know I can only take love when the time is right)
Oh, baby
So what you gonna do?
