Downtown
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Boy, I want you to listen closely to what I have to say
'Cause this is the way to my heart
You've been wondering how you can make it better
Baby, it's easy to turn my world inside out
Your discovery will take us to another place
Baby, on that, there is no doubt
I've been waiting for the special moment
Anticipating all the things you'll do to me
Make the first step to release my emotions
To take the road to ecstacy
You gotta go downtown
That's the way to my love
Take it round and round
Oooh, you can't stop till you find my love
Go downtown, to taste the sweetness
Will be enough
That's the love that you've been dreaming of
Keep on doing, doing what you're doing
Till you feel the passion burning up inside of me
If you do me right
We'll be making love all through the night
Until you uncover the mystery
Take it nice and slow
Baby, don't rush the feeling
Now you know how you can make it happen, yeah
My desire is begging for the healing
Let me guide you down to the place to be
That's where I keep the key to my love
(To my love)
It opens up the door to so, so much more
(So, so, so much more)
Baby, move on down, get closer
To my sensitivity
Ooh, yeah
Baby, send me
Downtown
(Ooh you can't stop till you find my love)
Baby don't you dare stop
(That's the love that you been dreamin' of)
That's the love you're dreamin of
(Ooh you can't stop till you find my love)
Don't you stop
(That's the love that you've been dreamin' of)
That's the love you're dreamin of
