    spoken
    so what do you want to do
    i’m here baby
    i’m ready baby

    believe me i am patiently waiting on you

    girl there’s something wrong with me
    every time i’m alone with you
    you keep talking ’bout you loving me
    hey babe your foreplay just blows my mind
    so why don’t we stop all the talking girl
    why don’t we stop wasting time

    pre
    i’ve had my share of lovers
    and some say i’m damn good
    but if you think you can turn me out
    baby i wish that you would

    ’cause you keep telling me this and telling me that
    you say once i’m with you i’ll never go back
    you say there’s a lesson that you want to teach
    well here i am baby practice what you preach

    girl it’s just you and me so many things
    i could do to you and so many ways i can please
    hey hey hey it’s your move girl
    why don’t you start turning down the lights
    and show me just what you can do
