[English]

You got the lovin' that I need

Baby let me plant the seed

You got the lovin' that I need

Your lovin' bring men to their knees

That love, love, love

I'm missin' my love, love, love

Oh and I can't wait to see her

Your love made me a believer

And I won't fight these feelings anymore

I can't get enough of your love

Lo-o-o-o, lo-o-o-o-ove

Lo-o-o-o, lo-o-o-o-ove

Girl, I'm bringin' everything I offer

If it's not enough then tell me what you wanna

A chance to have your love would be an honor

Just know I bring the heat like a sauna

I promise I will never bring the drama

Baby we can fix this, never be a runner

Go deep, deep, deep, deep, deep like a plumber

The knock, knock, knock, knock, knock it with my Hummer, hey!

Baby you're the love of my life

Girl I need you right by my side

So baby, tell me what you're doin' tonight

Matter of fact, what you doin' for the rest of your life?

I'll do anything just to see your smile

For your love I would run more than a mile

Over any mountain, any ocean wide

I won't stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, 'til I get...

That love, love, love

I'm missin' my love, love, love

Oh and I can't wait to see her

Your love made me a believer

And I won't fight these feelings anymore

I can't get enough of your love

Lo-o-o-o, lo-o-o-o-ove

Lo-o-o-o, lo-o-o-o-ove

Girl I really hope you get this letter

You can never find a man will love you better

And I can keep you warmer than a sweater

And anything you need, I'll go get you

I promise I will never leave you stranded

Angel, I love you from the very day you landed

Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, like a Fiat

Have you huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, breathin' heavy

Baby you're the love of my life

Girl I need you right by my side

So baby, tell me what you're doin' tonight

Matter of fact, what you doin' for the rest of your life?

I'll do anything just to see your smile

For your love I would run more than a mile

Over any mountain, any ocean wide

I won't stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, 'til I get...

That love, love, love

I'm missin' my love, love, love

Oh and I can't wait to see her

Your love made me a believer

And I won't fight these feelings anymore

I can't get enough of your love

You got the lovin' that I need

Baby let me plant a seed

You got the lovin' that I need

Your lovin' bring men to their knees

Cause I won't stop

Until I get every last drop

Of your love, I won't stop

Until I get every last drop

Of that love, love, love

I'm missin' my love, love, love

Oh and I can't wait to see her

Your love made me a believer

And I won't fight these feelings anymore

I can't get enough of your love

Lo-o-o-o, lo-o-o-o-ove

Lo-o-o-o, lo-o-o-o-ove

Lo-o-o-o, lo-o-o-o-ove

Lo-o-o-o, lo-o-o-o-ove
