Lodela is a 1996 dance film directed by Philippe Baylaucq, and produced in Montreal by the National Film Board of Canada. The film received eight awards, including Best Short Documentary at the Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival and a Special Jury Citation for its "formal beauty and poetic cinematic construction" at the Toronto International Film Festival. The film featured dancers José Navas and Chi Long, with Navas also serving as choreographer.
Lodela draws its inspiration from the Bardo Thodol, with the film's title a corruption of "l'au-delà," a French term for the hereafter.
[chorus]
Always thinkin' of you (always thinkin' Of you (ooh, uh, ooh, ooh))
I just wanna touch you (I just wanna touch you (ooh, uh, ooh, ooh))
Anything you want to (anything you want to (ooh, uh, ooh, ooh))
I just wanna love you (I just wanna love you)
You make me ooh, ooh, ooh
Baby ooh, ooh, ooh
[VERSE-1]
I'm feeling something that I never felt before
I ain't toyin' you I want you Girl
I wanna tell you things I've been afraid to say
I'll Make The Move now if that's okay
If I could only get one minute of your time
Look in your eyes tell you why
Should let me love you (you should let me love you)
So deep
The way that you had me
[Chorus]
[VERSE-2)
I love the way that you bring out the best of me
Just by the way you, the way you speak
So softly in my ear your driving me insane
Just by the way you, you say my name
Its' unreal, what I feel
Is it okay, if I still
Show you how I want you (show you how I want you)
I'm so amazed with everything that you do
Girl you make me ooh
[Chorus]
Ooooh-ooooh, baby
I just wanna love you, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooooh-ooh, ooooh-ooh, I just gotta touch you (feeling you)
