about

“90s” is a love song inspired by the nostalgic images of Black Love that we [Cook] grew up seeing in the 1990s in film, TV, music and art. The lyrics describe a relationship that may have lost some of its luster from the early days, and the protagonist is asking to be loved like a classic 90s Black film.

lyrics

Love me
My sweet and chocolate lovey
I miss the way you love me, babe
Just love me like the 90s
Oh babe
Can you love me?
Like we’re in the 90s
Oh lovely
Just love me like a 90s ah babe

You put your dreams to side (dreams to the side)
Just come along if you wanna be with me
For the ride (me for the ride)
I don’t wanna be the one to tell ya how to be in the night
You can be who you like
You can do what you like
Babe It’s up to you to decide

Black love
I call for you
I need black love
You’re all I knew
In my adolescence
Past and present
All of the movies
All of the records
It’s in my spirit
My soul
I feel it

It’s one line that stuck with me
It said you can be in love
But how can you stay in love?
Tell me how to stay in love?
I love the movies
I love the songs
I love the words
I love your gown
But don’t let these sweet nothings mean nothing

I miss the way you love me
(Love me, love me, love)
My sweet and chocolate lovey
(Love me, love me, love)
I miss the way you love me
(Love me, love me, love me)
Just love me like the 90s
(Just love me like the 90s babe)

I know you love me
Kisses so sweet babe

Mmmmm
(Ahhh uuuuuuu)

I can’t conceive it
I can’t believe it
(Ahhh uuuuuuu)

I can’t conceive it
I can’t believe it
Just speak like you mean it
I must be dreaming’
Baby baby

I can’t conceive it
Speak like you mean it
Cause I must be dreamin
I can’t believe this

I can’t conceive it
Just speak like you mean it
I must be dreamin’

Dreamin’
Dreamin’
(Mmmmmm)
