[Verse 1:]
When I lay my eyes on you I knew you were the one
Not just for sex and fun, wanna show you were I'm coming from
I know your seeking love, a fairytale come true
The blessings of a man to bring that dream to you
No need to search no more, your quest is finally over
Not just a hand to hold but an angel on your shoulder
Someone to tell your secrets and what you feel inside
Lay it down on me
[Chorus:]
Just lay that love down like a butterfly, it's just you and I
Your loves like a natural high
Got me saying my my my my
I just got to have your love again tonight, tonight
Just lay that love down like a butterfly, it's just you and I
Your love's like a natural high
Got me saying my my my my my my, oh
[Verse 2:]
I can't wait to get you home, girl I got some plans for you
We came in through a beaded doorway, Nag Champa fills the room
We got some oldies playing on the photograph
Some Donnie Hathaway, trail of roses to the bath
Serious loving going on, grown things is happening
Too hard to hold it back, baby that's why the water's splashing
I wanna rock the boat, I wanna work the middle
Do them things that make you high
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Baby we gon' toast, girl you doin' the most
So go ahead and break it down
Cause the way you break it down
I know you ain't playing with me
Break it down, lay it down
Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down like a butterfly
You are so beautiful, oh girl, natural high
Oooh ooh oooh oooh oooh ooh oooh oooh, oooh ooh
[Chorus]
