Sugar, sugar She sits alone waiting for suggestions He's so nervous avoiding all the questions His lips are dry, her heart is gently pounding Don't you just know exactly what they're thinking If you want my body and you think i'm sexy Come on sugar let me know. If you really need me just reach out and touch me Come on honey tell me so Tell me so baby He's acting shy looking for an answer Come on honey let's spend the night together Now hold on a minute before we go much further Give me a dime so i can phone my mother They catch a cab to his high rise apartment At last he can tell her exactly what his heart meant If you want my body and you think i'm sexy Come on honey tell me so If you really need me just reach out and touch me Come on sugar let me know His heart's beating like a drum ''cause at last he's got this girl home Relax baby now we are alone They wake at dawn ''cause all the birds are singing Two total strangers but that ain't what they're thinking Outside it's cold, misty and it's raining They got each other neither one's complaining He say's i sorry but i'm out of milk and coffee Never mind sugar we can watch the early movie If you want my body and you think i'm sexy Come on sugar let me know If you really need me just reach out and touch me Come on honey tell me so If you really need me just reach out and touch me Come on sugar let me know If you really, really, really, really need me Just let me know Just reach out and touch me If you really want me Just reach out and touch me Come on sugar let me know If you really need me just reach out and touch me Come on sugar let me know If you, if you, if you really need me Just come on and tell me so
