Knowles, Solange - Locked In Closets Lyrics






When I was just a girl I felt just so alone
Locked myself in closets thinking, “If I was the only one”
Dim light shining on my room
Locked up in this old cocoon

Look at me, I'm just a girl Still feeling so alone
Looking at myself thinking, ”Best to come and easy go”
Street light shining on my room
Locked up in this old cocoon

And all I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you

When I was just a girl I wore a thousand lives
Heading on a search for the thing that makes me feel alright
Ten black moments in my room
Diamonds shimmers from the moon

And now I'm just a girl living in the satellite
Took what I needed from this town and getting down at night
Street light shining in my room
Getting out the suns up soon

And all I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you

    "THE DEFINITION OF NEO-SOUL / INDIE SOUL"
    Neo-Soul / Indie Soul is a timeless musical genre that fuses real instrumental, Jazz, Contemporary R&B and 1970s-style Soul,Funk,Rock and Deep House Soul Music with some elements of Hip-Hop. As it's name (new soul) implies, Neo-Soul / Indie Soul music is essentially modern-day soul music, with contemporary attitudes and sensibilities. It differs from contemporary R&B in that it's organic and obviously more soulful,and it also tends to have deeper messages and meanings than R&B.

    When I was just a girl I felt just so alone
    Locked myself in closets thinking, “if I was the only one”
    Dim light shining on my room
    Locked up in this old cocoon

    Look at me, I'm just a girl still feeling so alone
    Looking at myself thinking, ”best to come and easy go”
    Street light shining on my room
    Locked up in this old cocoon

    And all I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
    All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
    All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
    All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you

    When I was just a girl I wore a thousand lives
    Heading on a search for the thing that makes me feel alright

    And all I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
    All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
    All I wanted was the dream of being in love with you
