I'd Like To

I'd, I'd like to paint this picture for you

I know I'm in love

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
Plastic cups for rum and punch, eating chicken that's hot and sweet
I desire the simple things

Ooh, we'd cut off our old jeans and go outside
I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
Neighbor's always smiling with a baby on her knee
Rhea sat on the front step getting her hair combed out and greased
I'd, and paint a picture for you

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I'd just like to make you see I desire the simple things
Mother's in the garden inviting everyone
I'd, I'd like to paint a picture for you

Growing up, we didn't have a lot of money
Delicate, intimate, used to dream of someone to love
Used to spend our summers having parties on the drive
The boys will call for me

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
Ooh, you know the way I mean
I'd, I'd like to paint a picture for you

Maybe then, now and then, I would want somebody
I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
And music, the bass booming, pours from a car parked in the street
All the women discussing what love is like
I'd just like to make you see that I desire the simple things
Now you come and you go right by me
Got that new song on repeat, oh oh oh

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'm just trying to make you see that I desire the simple things

Got that new song on repeat
I'm just trying to make you see that I desire the simple things
And I'm just sitting watching hoping

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from
I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you
I'd, I'd like to paint a picture for you
