There's something I have to say to you
If you promise you'll understand
I cannot contain myself when in your presence
I'm so humble
Just touch me
Don't hide our love
Woman to man
She's just a lover who makes me high
It's worth the giving, it's worth the try
You cannot cleave it or put it in the furnace
You cannot wet it, you cannot burn it
She wants to give it
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it) dare me
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it)
She wants to give it, yeah
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it)
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it)
It's just a feeling, you have to soothe it
You can't neglect it, you can't abuse it
It's just desire, you cannot waste it
Then if you want it, then won't you taste it
She wants to give it
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it) dare me
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it)
She wants to give it, yeah
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it)
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it)
One thing in life you must understand
The truth of lust woman to man
So open the door and you will see
There are no secrets, make your move, set me free
Ah, because there's something about you, baby
That makes me want to give it to you
I swear there's something about you, baby
Just promise me whatever we say (and we get it)
Or whatever we do to each other
For now, we'll take a vow to just (never knew)
Keep it in the closet
If you can get it, is it worth the try?
I really want it, I can't deny
It's just desire, I really love it
'Cause if it's aching, you have to rub it
She wants to give it
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it) dare me
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it)
She wants to give it, yeah
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it)
(She wants to give it, ahh, she wants to give it)
Just open the door and you will see
This passion burns inside of me
Don't say to me, "You'll never tell"
Touch me there
Make the move
Cast the spell
Ah, because there's something about you, baby
That makes me want to give it to you
I swear there's something about you, baby
That makes me want
Just promise me whatever we say
Or do to each other
For now, we'll make a vow to just (whatever we do)
Keep it in the closet
Because there's something about you, baby
That makes me want to give it to you
Because there's something about you, baby
That makes me want to give it to you
I swear there's something about you, baby
That makes me want to give it to you
I swear there's something about you, baby
That makes me want to give it to you
I swear there's something about you, baby
That makes me want to give it to you
Somethin' about you, baby
That makes me want
Just promise me whatever we say
Or whatever we do to each other (yeah, whatever we do)
For now, we'll make a vow to just
Keep it in the closet
(She wants to give it) dare me
(Ah) keep it in the closet
(She wants to give it) dare me
(Ah) keep it in the closet
She wants to give it, ah, she wants to give it
She wants to give it, ah, she wants to give it
She wants to give it, ah, she wants to give it
She wants to give it, ah, she wants to give it
(Bring it down)
(She wants to give it)
(She wants to give it ah)
(She wants to give it) keep it in the closet
(She wants to give it)
(She wants to give it) keep it in the closet
(She wants to give it, ah, she wants to give it) dare me
