Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby, now hold me close
Baby, now hold me close
Baby, now hold me close
Baby, now hold me close
Baby, now hold me close
Baby, now hold me close
[Verse 2]
I just wanna take you there
He don't gotta know where
Does he touch you here like this, this, this?
Let me take the friction from your lips
[Verse 3]
And I'ma love you, girl
The way you need
Ain't no one gon' stop us
Ain't no one gon' stop us
[Verse 4]
And I'm gon' give you, girl
What you fiend
I'm the drug in your veins
Just fight through the pain
[Verse 5]
He's what you want
He's what you want
He's what you want
He's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
[Verse 6]
He's what you want
He's what you want
He's what you want
He's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need
[Verse 7]
I got, everything you want with me
I do, everything he does times three
And he don't gotta know
I got you on the floor, doing things you never thought you'd do
[Verse 8]
Baby, leave them high heel shoes
'Cause I love it when you're looking down at me, I'm looking up at you
And I don't give a damn, shawty
Watch me knock your boots off
[Verse 9]
And I'ma love you, girl
The way you need
Ain't no one gon' stop us
Ain't no one gon' stop us
[Verse 10]
And I'ma give you, girl
What you fiend
I'm the drug in your veins
Just fight through the pain
[Verse 11]
He's what you want
He's what you want
He's what you want
He's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need, what you
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need, what
[Verse 12]
He's what you want
He's what you want
He's what you want
He's what you want
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need, what you
I'm what you need, what you need, what you need, what
[Verse 13]
Whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa
Oh-oh
Oh
