Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can you be a part of my life? (Mmm)
Can you be a part of my life? (Ooh)
[Verse 2]
Oh, it's easy to find someone to play with
And almost anyone will do to fill your idle time
But that very special someone you can share all your dreams with
Is so hard to find
And it used to be like me to settle for the physical
But these days, it ain't too easy to make up my mind
'Cause apparently, your body is just too temporary
To take up my precious time, whoa-oh
[Verse 3]
(She) I've got to know that
That I can be free with you
And you've got to show that
That you're worthy of my time
Can you stimulate my mind?
[Verse 4]
And I know that it looks good, but
Can you be a part of my life?
And I'm sure that it feels good, but
Can you be a part of my life?
And it probably even tastes good
But can you be a part of my life?
I've got to know (I've got to know, oh)
[Verse 5]
I still appreciate the beauty of a man
But there's more than what I need now than what meets the eye
And if beauty's only skin deep
Then your pretty skin won't send me to my highest high, oh
It's been a long time comin' for maturity
And I believe that it's truly what it has to be
'Cause as much as I admire you
My sexual desire ain't controllin' me, hey, yeah
[Verse 6]
Said I've got to know that
That I can be free with you, hey
And you've got to show that
That you're worthy of my time
Can you stimulate my mind?
[Verse 7]
And I know that it looks good, but
Can you be a part of my life?
And I'm sure that it feels good, but
Can you be a part of my life?
And it probably even tastes good, but
Can you be a part of my life?
I've got to know (I've got to know, oh)
And I know that it looks good, but
Can you be a part of my life?
And I'm sure that it feels good, but
Can you be a part of my life?
And it probably even tastes good, but
Can you be a part of my life?
I've got to know (I've got to know, got to know, oh)
[Verse 8]
Can you be a part of my life?
I got to know that
Can you be a part of my life?
I got to know that
Can you be a part of my life?
I got to know that
Can you be a part of my life?
I got to know that (Oh)
Can you be a part of my life?
I got to know that
Can you be a part of my life? (Yeah)
I got to know that (I got to know)
Can you be a part of my life? (Ooh, oh)
Can you be a part of my life? (Can you be a)
I got to know that (Part of my life)
Can you be a part of my life? (Hey)
I got to know that (Oh, yeah)
