When U Love SomebodyThe New Power Generation

Released: June 30, 1998

Songwriter: Prince

Producer: Prince

I was the one sleepin' all alone
When you were at the party
I was the one waitin' by the phone
When you were with somebody

Now here you come again with your heart in your hands
Confessin' all of your sins, yeah
The same tired line that I've heard a dozen times
But still I've got 2 give in

{Chorus}
'Cause when U love somebody
Every now and then it might rain
When you love somebody
With every sun shower there's pain
Whenever something's lost, Something's gained
When U love somebody
When U love someone

You were the one lookin' for some action
I was just lookin' for you
Who needs love when you got protection
Quote, unquote your point of view

All my partners say that I need to dismiss ya
Until they see you smile (Such a pretty smile)
All them fools are buggin' 'cause they just want your lovin'
In the backseat, huh, for a little while (But I don't care)

{Chorus}
'Cause when U love somebody (when U love somebody)
Every now and then it might rain
When you love somebody
With every sun shower there's pain (whooo)
Whenever something's lost
Something's gained
When U love somebody (whooo)
When U love someone (Girl)

(Whooooo, whooo, whooo, whooo)

Check me out on the floor
So what, you got me open
Yeah, do your dance
But I'm the one you're dancin' for

And you know this
Round and round, don't stop it

And you know this, yeah, yeah
Up and down, you got it

[Chorus]
'Cause when U love somebody (When U love somebody)
Every now and then it might rain (it might rain)
When U love somebody (whoo Ohhhh)
With every sun shower there's pain (a little pain, a little pain, sometimes) Whenever something's lost, something's gained
(Oooo but every now and then you got to think about what you gain)
Think you don't?

When U love somebody
(Yeah)
When U love somebody
Every now and then it might rain
(Oooo Might rain)
When U love somebody
(Pourin' down, down on me)
With every sun shower there's pain
(Come on, wet me rain)
Whenever something's lost, something's gained
(Something's gained)
When U love somebody
(When U love somebody) yeah
When U love somebody, ooo it's so sweet
When U love somebody
When U love somebody, It's complete
When U love somebody, (well, it's so nice)

When U love somebody (it's paradise)
When U love somebody

Round and round, don't stop it

Round and round, don't stop the pounds
'Cause a brutha gettin' down here lately
Freedom agrees with us all, you see
In a state of mind that's weightless
See, on the quantum tip I flipped on the notion
When the Adam split, we got Eve
Duality's now a groupie with a backstage pass
And they ain't gonna leave till they get some

From grace we fall
Referring to the objects on the wall
I'd picture my hat, my coat, my balls
Around and round, around and round
(Round and round, round and round)
Huh, don't stop the pounds
(Don't stop the pounds)
Yeah, 'cause a brutha gettin' down here lately

Ummm
