Lyrics

Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
Yeah
We gotta take this thing back to basics
You know I like you, I'm gon' say it
Let's not make this complicated
I'm gonna give you the good, can you take it? (Yeah)
If you want it, you can have it
Yeah, I hope you understand that all you do
Yeah, the way you got me feelin' like nobody else (Nobody else)
If you feel like I do (I do)
Let's not waste any more time, here lyin' by ourselves
Why wait 'til the morning? We wait long enough
Let's go back to basics when it comes to love
You like how I'm movin', I like how you touch
Let's go back to basics when it comes to love
Love, love
Back to basics, back to basics
Love, love
Back to basics, back to basics
We gotta take this thing back to basics
Don't go messing 'round with my heart
When I fall, yeah, I fall real hard
Baby, my lovin' expensive, don't waste it
My lovin' amazing, just wait 'til you taste it
All that I do (I do)
Yeah, the way you got me feelin' like nobody else (Mm-hmm-mm)
If you feel like I do (I do)
Let's not waste any more time just lyin' to ourselves (To ourselves, baby, you know)
Yeah, yeah
Why wait 'til the morning? We wait long enough
Let's go back to basics when it comes to love
You like how I'm movin', I like how you touch
Let's go back to basics when it comes to love
Love (Oh, oh), love
Back to basics, back to basics
Love (Oh, oh), love
Back to basics, back to basics
You said, "I can't stay away from you"
I said, "Baby, I don't want you to"
Can we get one more bottle
Maybe two, maybe three? I want you
Back to basics with you baby, yeah
Why wait 'til the morning? (Oh) We wait long enough (Ah)
Let's go back to basics (Yeah) when it comes to love
You like how I'm movin' (Mm-hmm), I like how you touch
Let's go back to basics (Yeah) when it comes to love
Love (Tu-tu-du, du-du), love (Oh, can we go)
Back to basics, back to basics (Oh, can we go)
Love (Yeah, tu-tu-du, du-du), love (Oh, can we go)
Back to basics, back to basics
Why wait 'til the morning? We wait long enough
Let's go back to basics when it comes to love
You like how I'm movin', I like how you touch
Let's go back to basics when it comes to love
Love (Tu-tu-du, du-du), love (Oh, can we go)
Back to basics, back to basics (Oh, can we go)
Love (Yeah, tu-tu-du, du-du), love (Oh, can we go)
Back to basics, back to basics
