Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once we were lovers, can they understand?
Closer than others, I was your, I was your man
Don't talk of heartaches, ooh, I remember them all
When I'm checking you out one day to see if I'm faking it all
[Chorus]
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me inside?
Show your love, love
Take it in right, take it in right
Take it in right, take it in right
[Verse 2]
There's been many others so many times
Sixty new cities and what do I, what do I find?
I want love so badly, I want you most of all
You know, it's harder to take it from anyone
It's harder to fall, can you hear me call?
[Chorus]
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me inside?
Show your love, love
Take it in right, take it in right
Take it in right, take it in right
[Chorus]
Well, can you hear me?
Yeah
Can you feel me inside
I do
Show your love, show your sweet, sweet love
Show me your love
[Outro]
Take it in right, take it in right
Take it in right, take it in right
Take it in right into your love, love
Babe, take it in right into love life
Take it in right, take it in right, right to your love life
Take it in right
[Outro]
Why don't you take it?
Take it in, take it in right, right down right down
Why don't you take it?
Why don't you take it?
Why don't you take it
Right to your heart?
But can you hear me?
Why don't you take it?
Can you feel me?
Why don't you take it?
Can you take it and ride?
Why don't you take it
Right down, right down
Right to your heart?
Can you take it?
Feel me
Why don't you take it?
Down there right now
Why don't you take it?
To your heart
Why don't you take it
To your heart
Right to your heart?
Take it down, take it down
Why don't you take it?
Why don't you take it?
Take it and ride
Right to your heart? (Ooh)
