about

Written, arranged and produced by SIJI
Co-Produced by Bill Lee

The hopeless romantic that I am rarely ever wears my heart on my sleeve. That said, I nonetheless find it miles easier to unveil delicate matters of the hear in song.

I count myself blessed and fortunate enough to have tasted and basked in the warmth of one of the most powerful of all human emotions, Love. For time and again I have been floored, crowned, emancipated and empowered by its might and majesty. Thus, I feel compelled to boldly sing, "This Must Be Love", for it has truly found its way into my heart.

lyrics

HOOK
This must be love, love, love
This must be love, love, your love
This must be love
And it’s found a way into my heart

(This must be love)
This must be love it’s got me feeling this way
Said it must be love making me stronger each day
This must be love cause you’re always on my mind

(This must be love)
This must be love pushing dark clouds aside
Said it must be love got me scaling great heights
Some kinda special just the way I feel inside

REFRAIN
It’s making me scream your name
So tongue tied for days
I tremble inside when I’m close enough to touch u
I yearn for more
When I look deep into your eyes

HOOK

II.
(Your precious love)
Your precious love makes me swell up with pride
You better believe I’ve got nothing to hide girl
This sacred feeling makes me hold my head up high

This special feeling’s got me hung up on you
For better or worse I’ve got nothing to lose
I feel so favored just to have you here in my life, girl….

REFRAIN
It’s got me acting the fool
Takes away my blues
Makes me greedy for more
Of your warm ‘n tender touch
I yearn to belong
Eternally by your side

This must be love....

Moodymann creates innovative soul funky music with deep 70s inspiration. The vocals are simply outstanding. A step back in time, 50 years ago! Superb. jef37

Wow, just wow. Have already played several tracks from this album on The Illicit Grooves radio Show but just know I need it on vinyl too. The Gary Bartz track is so good but then again so is every other track. Bob Hill Illicit Grooves
