(Oh) go!
Hit the lights
Can't let no one see me get down
It's alright, I know they think I get around
You and I got something they can't know about
Really only heaven knows my heart

You know this ain't an ordinary love
We got so much history in the stories about us
So come on over baby

We gon' light some candles tonight
Very special
We gon' do whatever you like
Very special
Got some Henney chillin' on ice
Very special
Hope you make the rest of my life
Very special (hoo oh)
Very special (hoo oh)
All night

Warm my bed, it's a little cold on your shoulder
Mama said, I would understand when I'm older
In my head, even if you tell me it's over
I'll pretend you told me I'm your all

'Cause you know this ain't an ordinary love
We got so much history in the stories about us
So come on over baby

We gon' light some candles tonight

We gon' do whatever you like

Got some Henney chillin' on ice
Very special
Hope you make the rest of my life
Very special (hoo oh)
Very special (hoo oh)

He supposed to be with you that's what everybody gon' tell me
But I can't really count on what everybody gon' tell me
She ain't seen her baby in a couple days (couple days)
And I'm looking at my baby right up in his face ooh
Flowers and gifts, restaurants
I swear he buy me anythang I want (thang I want)
That's why I'm so quick to
Put that music on for him, listen to it baby!

We gon' light some candles tonight (We gon' light some candles)
Very special
We gon' do whatever you like (whatever you like)
Very special
Got some Henney chillin' on ice (Got some Henney chillin' on ice for ya baby)

Hope you make the rest of my life (I hope you make the rest of my life)
