Lyrics

U

[Verse 1]

Now, see, I ain't the one to hold back on these words I'm sayin'

'Cause I like what you're doing to me, ain't no time for wastin'

So won't you follow me, there ain't no need to say a thing

'Cause I know just what I want and how to get it, baby

[Pre-Chorus]

Tonight, I need your body

Tonight, you got my time

Tonight, you won't be sorry

Tonight, you got my body

[Chorus]

I want you, gotta have you

Said I need you, can you feel me?

Said I want you, gotta have you

Said I need you, can you feel me?

[Verse 2]

Now, I've been known to brush a brother once or twice before

But what you're bringing to the table looks like so much more

So can we go find out what you're about behind closed doors?

'Cause I know just what I want, here's what I'm asking for

[Pre-Chorus]

Tonight, I need your body

Tonight, you got my time

Tonight, you won't be sorry

Tonight, you got my body

[Chorus]

I want you, gotta have you

Said I need you, can you feel me?

Said I want you, gotta have you

Said I need you, can you feel me?

[Bridge]

Can't help the way I'm feeling, baby, baby

Keep doing what you do that drive me crazy

'Cause I could never sing I’ve better than you and me

'Cause I'm looking for a full-time baby

Who's looking for a full-time lady

To be, be with me, yeah

[Chorus]

I want you, gotta have you

Said I need you, can you feel me?

Said I want you, gotta have you

Said I need you, can you feel me?

I want you, gotta have you

Said I need you, can you feel me?

Said I want you, gotta have you

Said I need you, can you feel me?
