Purify Me

Easy like Sunday mornin,
like an angel callin --
he's takin me all in;
I'm embracin him with my skin
like a glimmer of light,
like a vision of life,
and he's so perfect
that I couldn't picture him if I tried.

See, some may come,
some may go,
but I'll follow you wherever --
you're the perfect mate for my soul.
And, I know why I loose control
whenever I'm around you:
cause you given me

your hand
(and that's more than enough.)
Your glance
is like jumpin in the river of
Jordan.
Purify me, baby,
when I'm taking
your hand
(and that's more than enough.)
Your glance
is like jumpin in the river of
Jordan.
Purify me, baby.

It's summertime always,
like it's sunny out all day
whenever you smile
sweeter than Momma's homemade.
I thought that every man
was made the same way,
but in a world of smoke and ashes, boy,
you are milk and honey.

See, some may come,
some may go,
but fill me up with your love;
you're nourishment to my soul.
And, I know why I loose control
whenever I'm around you:
cause you've given me

your hand
(and that's more than enough.)
Your glance
is like jumpin in the river of
Jordan.
Purify me, baby,
when I'm taking
your hand
(and that's more than enough.)
Your glance
is like jumpin in the river of
Jordan.
Purify me, baby.
