I stumbled on this song when I was listening to the Jackie Brown film soundtrack. It's a beautiful and sensual love song with fairly explicit lyrics (amazingly allowed in 1975), and what a song it is, sung by an incredible singer. Minnie Riperton's voice lifts it into the ether; it's not hard to imagine her and her husband Richard Rudolph writing it together when they were first in love. I love it.
Inside My Love
Two people, just meeting, barely touching each otherTwo spirits, greeting, tryna carry each furtherYou are one, and I am anotherWe should be, one inside each other
You can see inside me, will you come inside meDo you wanna ride, inside my loveYou can see inside me, will you come inside meDo you wanna ride, inside my love
My love, my love, my loveMy love, my love, my love
Two strangers, not strangersOnly lacking the knowingSo willing, feelingInfinite growingWhile we're here, the whole world is turningWe should be, one, fulfilling the yearning
You can see inside me, will you come inside meDo you wanna ride, inside my loveYou can see inside me, will you come inside meDo you wanna ride, inside my loveYou can see inside me, will you come inside meDo you wanna ride, inside my love
Say that you'll ride, inside this love with meCome ride, inside this love with me
You can see inside me, will you come inside meDo you wanna ride, inside my loveYou can see inside me, will you come inside meDo you wanna ride, inside my love
You can see inside me, will you come inside meDo you wanna ride, inside my loveYou can see inside me, will you come inside meDo you wanna ride, inside my love
