Talk to me, talk to me 00:03
Talk to me, talk to me 00:07
Looks like we're making up for lost time 00:11
Need you to spell it out for me 00:16
Bossa nova on all night 00:21
It's like a type of alchemy 00:25
Introduce me to your best friend 00:28
I can come and slot right in 00:33
A satellite ain't even that far 00:37
I kinda wonder where you are 00:40
Already know I can't leave it alone 00:43
You're on my mind, mm 00:48
Already gave you the time and the place 00:51
So don't be shy 00:54
Just come be the man I need 00:56
Tell me you got something to give 00:58
I want it 01:00
I kinda like when you call me wonderful 01:04
Whatever the type of talk it is 01:06
Come on, then 01:08
I gotta know you're meant to be the man I need 01:13
Talk to me 01:14
Talk to me 01:16
Mm, talk to me, talk to me 01:19
Be the man that I need, baby 01:21
Talk to me, talk to me 01:22
Be the man that I need, need, need 01:24
Talk to me, talk to me 01:26
Be the man that I need, baby 01:28
Talk to me, talk to me 01:30
Be the man, man, man, man, man 01:33
I'd like to think you feel the same way 01:37
But I can't tell with you sometimes 01:41
So, baby, let's get on the same page 01:46
Stop making me read between the lines 01:49
Already know I can't leave it alone 01:52
You're on my mind, mm 01:56
Already gave you the time and the place 02:00
So don't be shy 02:02
Just come be the man I need 02:06
Tell me you got something to give 02:07

[English]

Talk to me, talk to me
Talk to me, talk to me
Looks like we're making up for lost time
Need you to spell it out for me
Bossa nova on all night
It's like a type of alchemy
Introduce me to your best friend
I can come and slot right in
A satellite ain't even that far
I kinda wonder where you are
Already know I can't leave it alone
You're on my mind, mm
Already gave you the time and the place
So don't be shy
Just come be the man I need
Tell me you got something to give
I want it
I kinda like when you call me wonderful
Whatever the type of talk it is
Come on, then
I gotta know you're meant to be the man I need
Talk to me
Talk to me
Mm, talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, baby
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, need, need
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, baby
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man, man, man, man, man
I'd like to think you feel the same way
But I can't tell with you sometimes
So, baby, let's get on the same page
Stop making me read between the lines
Already know I can't leave it alone
You're on my mind, mm
Already gave you the time and the place
So don't be shy
Just come be the man I need
Tell me you got something to give
I want it
I kinda like when you call me wonderful
Whatever the type of talk it is
Come on, then
I gotta know you're meant to be the man I need
Talk to me
Talk to me
Talk to me
Talk to me
Mm, talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, baby
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, need, need
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man that I need, baby
Talk to me, talk to me
Be the man, man, man, man, man
Mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm-mm-mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm
