Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's getting late, why you still here girl?
Have you made up your mind?
You want to make love tonight
[Verse 2]
I want you to hold me
I want you to be for real girl
Please tonight
[Verse 3]
Don't want you to go
'Cause I don't feel like bein' lonely, no
Not tonight, honey, not tonight
[Verse 4]
You're so scared
'Cause I can feel your heartbeat
It's so fast
[Verse 5]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Girl, tonight
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Girl, tonight
[Verse 6]
You're probably thinking
You're gonna be a woman
After all of this
[Verse 7]
Let me tell you
You're more woman than I ever seen
Girl, tonight
[Verse 8]
I want your lips
I even want your tongue, love
Come give it to me
Come give it to me
[Verse 9]
Take your time
But don't you take too long, girl
Please tonight
[Verse 10]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Girl, tonight
Oh, oh, oh, oh-ooh
Tonight
[Verse 11]
You're so wet
You can barely wait, girl
But see it's alright, honey, it's alright
[Verse 12]
It's so dark
But I don't even care, girl
I know where to go
I know what to do
[Verse 13]
You're the heart
And I am the arrow, girl
Let me shoot you, uh
[Verse 14]
And don't you worry about a damn thing
Girl, no
