One step forward and another back. I would never try to fool ya. I'm one heartbeat away from going mad, girl, when you look like that. Closer, closer, I'mma get closer to you. Yeah, got me, baby, got me hooked on you once again. Girl, I need you. How many times do I want to yell? 'Cause we could be so complete. Baby, I'll never want anyone new. I was on your bed and you undressed. Baby, when I pulled you in and felt your breath, then I knew. Girl, I need you. Smiling like that, I could never resist it. Smiling like that, I could never resist it. Smiling like that, I could never resist it. Every moment is another chance. Loving you is all I wanted. I'm wide open for a love affair, girl, when you looking like that. Closer, closer, I'mma get closer to you. Yeah.
