Loved this song for years and was so happy to hear on Middle of the Ocean

This song just folds you up. The intro, the richness of Eddies speaking voice. I’ve never been in love, this music makes me feel a breakup I’ve never had.

Like he said communication is the key. Nothing like making love after all that built up pain has been released. Takes you to a new level of intimacy. But most are afraid of intimacy these days

This was the song my pops would play when he was ready for his parties to end. “Y’all ain’t gotta go home but you got to get the hell up outta here” *takes sip of Seagrams* 😂

This song is everything

This is foundational music. As a young man, it helped me grow realistic and loving expectations for my future relationships. Yes, as a youngin' making mistakes I used it to seduce. But later I used it to heal. This is one of those songs that helped me aspire to truly have a woman and grow into man. I cried burying my wife with this song in my head. I cried years later singing this when the Lord blessed me with my fiance. Eddie and Walter are simply untouchable. Thank you brothers.

@@kevinodonkor4123 Sorry, I just saw this. Growing up in my day, there wasn't any discussion of a man having emotions. I started to think about balance: how to express the strong masculinity I felt every moment while also being able to share human feelings with a woman. I came to understand how critical love, respect, and mutual sacrifice is to a relationship. After observing older men trapped in a never ending cycle of seduction, I started wondering how many times do I need to prove to myself that I could seduce women? That powerful urge can eventually become a life destroying curse. I started to not just believe I could be faithful to a woman I love, but to demand it from myself. I wanted something more than conquering, I wanted partnership. But partnership doesn't come when sought, it happens when you grow yourself and don't seek relationship-- but are open to it. Women can sense true confidence and true desperation. Become a true believer in yourself without tipping over to arrogance and real pheromones are released. At that point pray for wisdom in chosing someone you can trust, respect, care for, and if need be lay down your life for. Sex is powerful by itself, but when a spirit is shared it becomes so much more, a reflection of God's design. If you keep seeking, learning, and demanding better of yourself (while forgiving the inevitable mistakes) your life will become richer and richer and you will be a mighty blessing to your family. Manhood is a journey, you're off to a great start trying to avoid making all the same mistakes others have made. You will make some along the way, but if those mistakes are survivable and not repeated, they grow you. I'm excited for your life and growth! I'm late 50s and still working to grow. Your desire for and work towards being a good man will be greatly rewarded. Be blessed young brother!

@@sbella6719 Yes! So important to learn along the way that knowledge can be used for good as well as selfishness. Sexuality is a doorway we too often stop at, without entering into the reward of mutual spirituality. There are some things we do to each other that can't be repaired. However, when we can trust each other enough to cry together, we can grow, repair some mistakes, and become what the Creator gifted.
