[English]

Passion, instant

Sweat beads, feel me

Cupid's shot me

My heartbeat's racing

Tempt me (tempt me), drive me (drive me)

Feels so exciting

Thought of highly

It's yours entirely

I'll be, I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, more than your other

I'll be, I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, more than enough for you

I'll be, I-I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, even more under covers

I'll be more, I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, more than enough for you

Midnight grindin'

Heart rate's climbin'

You go (you go), I go

'Cause we share (we share) pillows (pillows)

Chase me, leave me

There's still no separating

Morning massages with new bones in your closet

I'll be, I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, more than your other

I said I'll be, I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, more than enough for you

I'll be more, I-I'll be more than a lover (more)

More than a woman, even more under covers

I'm gonna be more, I'll be more than a lover (yeah)

More than a woman, more than enough for you

I don't think you're ready

I don't think you're ready for this thing

For this thing

I don't think you're ready for this thing

You're not ready (no, no)

I don't think you're ready for this thing

This thing, this thing

I don't think you're ready for this thing

Constant pleasures

No scale can measure

Secret treasures

Keeps on getting better (yeah)

Do you wanna roll with me?

We can go to foreign lands, your hand in my hand

Do you wanna ride with me?

We can be like Bonnie & Clyde, be by your side

I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, more than your other

I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, more than enough for you

I-I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, even more under covers

I'll be more than a lover

More than a woman, more than enough for you
