I can see your face every time
Anywhere, any place in my mind
If my guard is ever low
There's a place that I can go
Elixer
(Prince)
You can fight in vain
I'm gonna have my way all night and all day
Seven tears fall like rain in between the joy and pain
Oowie, baby
Hand in hand woman and man
Through the tallest doors, up the stairs
Two animals spawning in a river
They go there, oowie, baby
Oh elixer, up and down
Elixer round and round
Elixer, don't stop baby
Elixer
(Prince)
With his pen, ink and tongue
Is this real or all in fun
He writes it there
Naked girl, naked boy they lay exposed
Can you hear it? Can you hear it?
Fully clothed
Elixer

Regrann from @officialpaisleypark - Happy International Women's Day! Today we are reflecting on the women who Prince lifted up in his career, and his legacy of supporting and empowering the women artists he admired in the music industry. As soon as he signed to Warner Bros. and established himself as a formidable force in the recording world, Prince was eager to begin nurturing new talent. In the late 1970s, he was working closely with a fellow teenager from North Minneapolis, Sue Ann Carwell, helping her to create the demos that would help her to land her own Warner Bros. contract. By the early 1980s, in addition to the Time, Prince was producing and writing full albums for his proteges Vanity 6 and Apollonia 6, and working more closely with Wendy and Lisa to create songs for the Revolution. Sheila E., who would continue collaborating with Prince throughout his career, was enlisted to join his Purple Rain Tour and become his first female musical director for the 1987 Sign O' The Times Tour, and behind the scenes, engineer Susan Rogers was responsible for capturing many of Prince's best-known songs of the 1980s. On his Paisley Park Records imprint, Prince enlisted artists like Jill Jones, Taja Sevelle, Mavis Staples, Ingrid Chavez, and Carmen Electra to record with him, working closely on many of those albums right here at Paisley Park. And when he launched NPG Records in the late '90s, he continued that tradition by collaborating with influential artists like Chaka Khan. The list goes on and on (literally too many to highlight them all): Rosie Gaines became a star of the early lineup of the NPG, appearing on hits like "Diamonds and Pearls" and the live rendition of "Nothing Compares 2 U" that appears on The Hits/The B-Sides, and Prince's first wife Mayte Garcia took center stage as a dancer for much of the 1990s. In the 2000s, Prince mentored and produced albums for Bria Valente, Andy Allo, and Judith Hill, recruited vocal powerhouses like Liv Warfield, Shelby J and Elisa Fiorillo, the latter whom he worked with earlier in her career, to join his NPG, formed the all-women 3RDEYEGIRL with Donna Grantis, Ida Nielsen and Hannah Welton. Today we salute these

I was only 17 when he saw me
The apple of my daddy's eye
Cute but not jaded my hair in 2 braids
He looked at me and just said hi
Was it his cologne or the style of his hair
They told me I should stay away and not go there
Sometimes I'm all alone and don't c him
I wish it was different but I don't care
I'm a kept woman
He don't c nobody but me
We got a pretty little house
And only me and him got the key
A kept woman
Sometimes I don't know why
A kept woman
Sometimes I cry
He likes it when I dance 4 no reason
He likes it when I dance
But he doesn't like it when I raise my voice 2 him
I try 2 stop but I can't
Was it his cologne or the style of his hair
I don't know how but he took me there
And now I hug my pillow more nights than not
It's crazy but the butterflies just don't stop
'Cause I'm a kept woman
He don't c nobody but me
We got a pretty little house
And only me and him got the key
A kept woman
Sometimes I don't know why
A kept woman
Sometimes I cry
He's the hotness in my fire
I give him anything he desires
It may sound crazy but it suits me fine
Cause ain't nobody ever take away whats mine
'Cause I'm a kept woman
'Cause he's every single thing I need
Spiritual, physical
Kept woman
Chemical emotional
And everything in between
Don't u know that im a kept woman
Ooh loves me like no other
A love u never seen
I'm a kept woman
And I'm his queen
Yes I am, oh yes I am
And I don't care, no
Kept woman, I don't care
