lyrics

VERSE 1
I knew this girl named Alana with mad persona
She dealt with reality; she never fed into the drama
Met her a year before college at a banquet for scholars
Where we finally exchanged our knowledge for top dollars.
I saw her on my way to the parlor and had to holla.
Chit-chatty questions and the conversation that followed
Showed me she had something inside
Besides those thick thighs,
curly locs of hair, and these moon sized eyes.
And in the small start, something had sparked
I liked her and told her how I felt before we had to part
Which threw her off, played it soft and had to go
So if the feelings were returned, I did not know
Just let it flow, that’s my motto
And soon timed faded away in my minds hollow.
Which is why when welcome week when someone yelled Nyle
I was surprised to turn around and see a familiar smile.

CHORUS
That Hypnotic. In the ways that she moves
That Hypnotic. Whenever I look into her eyes
That Hypnotic. I just don’t know what to do
That Hypnotic. This girl’s got me hypnotized___

VERSE 2
Now, I come from a school of a hundred people
Who for the most part, knew each other since fifth grade
Needless to say, freshman year of college
rolled around and I had not got-ten laid
Got to school and started chasing around all the pretty tail
but by Friday had nothing to show for it, but numbers on my cell.
So when I saw this caramel beauty from the past I couldn’t pass
Agree that we should chill before we started class
And we did, I learned she had a man, but she said ignore it.
This ain’t highschool no more, so these feelings we started exploring
We turned dark park walks into kisses under the streetlight
Stare into her pupils put my arm around her waist as she’s holdin me tight
The connections a delight
But the next day her kisses were stale, and I didn’t I didn’t understand
Till she told me she had never broken it off with her man.

VERSE 3
I would begin to dial/her number
But knowin its been a while, its hard to link
See we tried to make it work as friends, but in the end
Our passions arose and we started over again
From hands brushin to hand holding
From playful hugs to embracing
Eyes lockin for a moment
Tryin to pull away but can’t until our lips connect.
Leaving her feeling guilty.
And me wonderin whats next/ when
Our spirits are so akimbo
So I made easy and stepped back, rather than keep it in limbo
let her process the info,while I pursue other interests.
Everyday her answer is clearer, cuz she ain’t call me yet
I’m not sitting by the phone but in my mind I do long
To hear her voice so I can finish this song.
