Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, we were walking
Oh, just the other day, yeah, yeah, yeah
And it was so hot outside
Ah, you could fry an egg
Remember you were talking
And I watched as sweat ran down your face
Reached up and I caught it at your chin
Licked my fingertips
We were, we were
[Verse 2]
Just wasting time
Let the hours roll by, doing nothing for the fun
A little taste of the good life
Whether right or wrong
Makes us wanna stay, stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
[Verse 3]
Ooh, then later on, the sun began to fade
And then, well the clouds rolled over our head and it began to rain
Oh, we were dancing
Mouths open, we were splashing
In the Ton-taste
And for a moment, this good time would never end
You and me, you and me
[Verse 4]
Just wasting time
I was kissing you, kissing me love
From a good day into the moonlight
And now our nights are fine
Makes us wanna stay, stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
[Verse 5]
(Makes you wanna, makes you wanna)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Don't it make you wanna)
Wasting time
I hall miss this thing when it all rolls by
What a day
Makes me wanna stay, stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
[Verse 6]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey love
Oh, just groping you, rolling in the mud
Stay awhile, oh come on
I wanna stay, stay, stay, stay, stay for awhile
[Verse 7]
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay)
[Verse 8]
(Makes me wanna stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Makes me wanna stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Don't it make you wanna)
(Stay)
(Don't it)
(Makes me wanna, makes me wanna)
(Stay!)
