[English]

I been knowing you for long enough

Damn, I need you right now

You can take your time, don't have to rush

This might take us a while, yeah

I left all the doors unlocked

and you said you're on your way

When you get here don't just say a word

got no time to play

I know you think that you know me

but you ain't even seeing my dark side

It's as if you only

So baby do me right, do me right

We can go all the time

We can move fast, then rewind

When you put your body on mine

and collide, collide

It could be one of those nights

where we don't turn off the lights

Wanna see your body on mine

and collide, collide

Baby it's all yours if you want me

I'm all yours if you want me

Put it down if you want me, tonight

We can go all the time

We can move fast, then rewind

When you put your body on mine

and collide, collide

It could be one of those nights

where we don't turn off the lights

Wanna see your body on mine

and collide, collide

Baby it's all yours if you want me

I'm all yours if you want me

Put it down if you want me, tonight

Said it's all yours if you want me

I'm all yours if you want me

Put it down if you want me, let's collide

I know that this is love when we touch, boy

you got my heart

And can't nobody make me feel like you do

boy like you do

We can go all the time

We can move fast, then rewind

When you put your body on mine

and collide, collide

It could be one of those nights

where we don't turn off the lights

Wanna see your body on mine

and collide, collide

Baby it's all yours if you want me

I'm all yours if you want me

Put it down if you want me tonight

Said it's all yours if you want me

I'm all yours if you want me

Put it down if you want me, let's collide
