I know what I want, baby, I know what I like
You're the one, you're my choice for life
You, every, every bit of you, I want it all, all of you
I want your love so bad, it makes my nature ache
Oh, let me share with you whatever love it takes
I'll be your fruit, between your sheets, is what you do to me, yeah
I don't make the kind of love that's only for a minute
I'll be inside of you as long as you want me in it
Baby, 'cause I, I only want to be with you
I, oh, I, I love the things you do
I, I only want to be with you, don't matter come what may
Whatever you want, whatever you say
Whatever it is, baby, any, anything you want
Girl, in my fantasies, I see us together
I'm loving you, you're loving me, this could be forever
Make me your fruit, between your sheets
Is what you do to me, yeah babe
Some guys will tell you lies and love is never in it
They only want some sex but sex alone won't get it
No baby, I, I only want to be with you
Yes, I, I love the things you do
I, I only want to be with you, day and night, night and day
Whatever you want, whatever you say
I, I only want to be with you
Oh I, I love the things you do
I know I only want to be with you, don't matter come what may
Whatever you want, whatever you say
You like that, uh huh
Please, don't make me beg
I will if I have to, baby, you can believe this if I got to
I want you and I'll do anything it takes to give you
I only wanna be with you
I don't make the kind of love that's only for a minute
I'll be inside of you as long as you want me in it
Yeah, well, I only want to be with you
Oh, I, I love the things you do
Oh, my, I only want to be with you
Don't matter come what may
Whatever you want, whatever you say
I, I only wanna to be with you
Hug me, baby, whatever gonna do
Yes, I, I want to be with you
Day and night, night and day
What you want, what you say.
