José James - Isis & Osiris (Official Audio)

Isis & Osiris

José James - the forward-looking, genre-defying Jazz singer for the hip-hop generation - has done it again. “1978” (his 12th studio album since 2008’s “The Dreamer'') announces an instant classic, combining James’ deep love of jazz and hip-hop with songwriting and production nods to R&B heroes Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson and Leon Ware. Produced by James and featuring an all-star ensemble including Grammy nominees Pedrito Martinez (Camilla Cabello, Eric Clapton), Marcus Machado (Daniel Ceasar, Pharoahe Monch), Jharis Yokley (Sleigh Bells, My Brightest Diamond) Chad Selph (Bilal, FREELANCE) and David Ginyard (Solange, Blood Orange), “1978” pulsates with the socially conscious feel-good vibes of Marvin Gaye, Prince and Stevie Wonder. James also skillfully explores the boundaries of Black music, featuring Brazilian rising star and recent Latin Grammy nominee Xênia França as well as Congolese-Belgian rapper/filmmaker Baloji.

LYRICS

Come to me with open arms

And I’ll never let you go

Come to me

My beautiful darling

I need to hold you close

Every time I see your face

I remember what we share

I need you girl

Come take a taste of my body everywhere

Come to me

My beautiful darling

Need to hold you close

I need to know your love surrounds me

Everywhere I go

Even though the darkest night

There’s a light that never fades

A love that never dies

A beauty in our eyes

Come to me with open arms

And I’ll never let you go

Come to me

My beautiful darling

I need to hold you close

Every time I see your face

I remember what we share

I need you girl

Come take a taste of my body everywhere

Come to me

My beautiful darling

Take me in your arms

I need to feel your love around me

Keep me safe from harm

Even through the darkest night

There’s a light that never fades

A love that never dies

Sunshine in your eyes

Come to me with open arms

And I’ll never let you go

Come to me

My beautiful darling

I remember what we share

I need you girl

Come take a taste

Of my body everywhere

Come to me

My beautiful darling

I need to feel your arms around me

And know that I’m your man

Even though the darkest night
