I don't want to give you up
I don't want to hold you up
I don't want ambiguous
I just know that I've had enough
I want you to travel with me
Let loose and let your mind go free
Show you things that you've never seen
You just go to go with me
Your love is so good that I want to show you
Don't make me responsible, for something you that can't find
Your loving is so good, so good, the closer
I want it, I want it
Into me
I want it, I want it
Leave it here
I want to get closer to you baby
Experience
I want it, I want it
Generous
Lay down what's impeding you
'Cause I want to get closer to you
I don't want to give you up
I'm tired of the pull and push
I " m tired of the making love
Don't you feel like you've had enough
I want you to journey with me, explore all the innocence
I don't mind us to build tension but we've got to move in the same direction
Your love is so good that I want to show you
Don't make me responsible, for something you that can't find
Your loving is so good, so good, the closer
I want it, I want it
Into me
I want it, I want it
Leave it here
I want to get closer to you baby
Experience
I want it, I want it
Generous
Lay down what's impeding you
Cause I want to get closer to you
You just got to go with me
Your love is so good that I want to show you
Don't make me responsible, for something you that can't find
Your loving is so good, so good, the closer
I want it, I want it
Into me
I want it, I want it
Leave it here
I want to get closer to you baby
Experience
I want it, I want it
Generous
Lay down what's impeding you
'Cause I want to get closer to you
