Whisper, I need you, to her
Take far from the crazy old route
Take her, love her
Where she's the only one allowed

Whisper, I love you, to her
Maker her feel like the woman she is
Soothe her, remember
A thousand words later than a kiss

Whisper to your woman
Once in a while
'Cause all the sweet sweet nothing's
Whispered in her ear
Will make her smile

She may be liberated
If she like your style
So whisper to your woman
Once in a while

Whisper to your woman
Take it from me
And when you leave her love
She'll give herself to you so easily

She'll be tender
She'll surrender and then
It's time to whisper to your woman
Once again

Whisper, I need you, to her
Take her far from the crazy old route...
