Chorus
I know you see me watchin' you
and I see you watchin' me
cos boy your bodys calling,
the temptation is killin' me
-repeattiyi
I'm chillin' at the spot and my posse's bo deep
had my man on my mind turn my head what did I see
the fellas lookin fly and there was one that caught my eye
so I bit my lip switched my hips as I walked by saying
"Sexy boy you so fly I just might give you a try
I'm a write yo number in the palm of my hand
oops I forgot I got a man"
Chorus
I know you see me watchin' you
(you're so sexy yeahh)
and I see you watchin' me
cos boy your bodys calling,
the temptation is killin' me
-repeat 4x-
I'm thinkin to myself should I even take a chance
should I do whats on my mind or should I stay down
with my man
this boy here got me feelin and I'm wantin him so bad
should I chill or not...do I risk everything i had
saying
"Sexy boy you so fly I wish I could give you a try
but my mans at home waiting for me by the phone
sorry cant get my groove on"
Chorus
I know you see me watchin' you
(you're so sexy yeahh)
and I see you watchin' me
cos boy your bodys calling,
the temptation is killin' me
-repeat 4x-
Temptations is callin
I beem wantin you so bad
I could cry
Relationships callin me
to do whats wrong but I gotta do right
-repeat-
Chorus
I know you see me watchin' you
and I see you watchin' me
Cause boy your body's fine
temptation is killin' me
-repeat 4x-
Temptation is callin
I be wantin you so bad I could cry
Relationship callin me
to do whats wrong but I gotta do right
-repeat 1times-
Chorus
I know you see me watchin' you
and I see you watchin' me
Cause boy your body's callin,
the temptation is killin' me
-repeat 'til fade-
