[Chorus] Well, I'm not talkin' bout locking down forever, baby. That would be too demanding. I'm just talkin' bout two lonely people who might reach a little understanding. I'm not talkin' bout knocking out heaven with whether we're wrong or we're right. I'm not talkin' bout hooking up and hanging out. I'm just talkin' bout tonight. You were sitting on your bar stool talking to some fool who didn't have a clue. I guess he couldn't see you were looking right at me cause I was looking at you too. Then it's "do you wanna dance", "have we ever met" You said "hold your horses boy I ain't that easy to get" [Chorus] She said "I only take it slow. By now you oughta know that I ain't digging this. If we can start as friends the weekend just might end with a little kiss." She said "I'm a lady looking for a man in my life who will make a good husband. I'll make a good wife." Heeheeeasy now. [Chorus] Yeah, I'm just talkin' bout a little bit later tonight.
