Cause I'm holdin' back I'm so thirsty
When I open wide, you better work inside
But promise that you wont hurt me wit

Cause I ain't got time for lies
This time ain't lookin' (for a friend)

I need a man thats gon wine and dine me
Every time you look you find me
Bell-hoppin he buyin' me
And plus he all mine see

And I know you sayin' that I'm jokin'
Cause the boys in the past, they just couldn't last
But for some reason I think u been chosen
(Heaven sent, don't wanna walk away)
Just hold me tightly up in you arms
And tell me (everyday)

That you ain't never gon' leave me heartbroke
Promise to give a good long stroke
Boy this for-real and this ain't no joke
Thought I was dreamin' but I know I'm woke
What you done did that got me so gone
Feels so right that this cant be wrong
Hangin' up and right back callin' yo phone
Cause I go crazy when I hear ya voice tone
Ah

And you know
I can't wait to see your face again
(Again boy)
And you know
I'm hopin' we can work this thing out
Every time that I'm alone
I'm thinkin' bout us and where we could be
That's how I know I gotta a thing
For you baby, yeah you know
