You and I is so fly when we get to going
We even hot when it’s snowing yeah
I can’t deny when you arrive there’s some nerve on me
But it’s never in the moment
Yeah
When making love it’s above anything I’ve had even in my past and I love it
Ha and then we get into a zone when its really on we be all alone and we jonesing
The thing of it all is we just love to spend time Even when hanging with friends there’s a time to say bye
Take em to the door wave hands one more time Even before it closes we intertwined
We can talk about our past get a little sad
Get in the Porsche hit the gas go into the mountains and
Let the music blast while the stars pass
Me and you we latched till it all passes
That’s a fact man
Uh uhh now I’m feeling like a baller a millionaire sprawler
Our melanin is lawless
Then we drive back and everything about that cancels out the wack, front seat moving to the back like whoa
I never knew (never knew) I would ever see a love like this not me baby maybe some other dude
I never knew (never knew) I'd become so jaded lately I felt like no one could save me like you do I never knew (never knew) I would ever see a love like this not me baby maybe some other dude
I’m shocked I’m like whoa
Who am I with you girl?
It’s a whole other me
When I’m with you its like dream
I don’t know what I feel about it
I’m filled with emotions I’m up in the clouds and Ain’t no worries ain’t coming down cuz I’ve been real down and I know all about it yeah
People be talking like I’m whipped I don’t care lemme pull out the whip and lets dip tie your hair up
People be staring cuz we sticking like some syrup We ain’t on IG only friends of ours can share us Trust no I’m not embarrassed Prince and Sinead O’Connor none can compare to us
Plus when I see you I prepare to lust
It’s nuts, how we get each other out of a shell
In a rush and you can tell that its a spell that we cannot discuss and so we go into the mountains and
Let the music blast while the stars pass
Me and you we latched till it all passes
That’s a fact man
Uh uhh now I’m feeling like a baller a millionaire sprawler
Our melanin is lawless
Then we drive back and everything about that cancels out the wack, front seat moving to the back like whoa

about
On 9th October 2020, Reel People release their soulful new single I Never Knew.
I Never Knew is pure pomp, pace and purpose – fizzing bars courtesy of Arrested Development’s Speech riding an irresistible cosmic groove with full force and expressing perfectly the out-and-out euphoria of love. It is the perfect return to action for a soulfully sharp collective idolised the world over.
I Never Knew precedes four-track EP, Dancing On The Moon, – itself a major stepping stone to brand new Reel People album, Love2, which drops Summer 2021. Produced by core members Oli Lazarus, Mike Patto and Toni Economides, and weaving contemporary R&B vibes into the collective’s classic, groove-fired flow, Love2 is supported by another heavyweight cast of collaborators including Paula, Muhsinah, I Never Knew Dayne Jordan, Chantae Cann, Eric Roberson, Michael Champion, Darlene McCoy and Raheem DeVaughn. Stay tuned - Reel People’s powerful evolution is coming…
