Well, I've been thinkin’ about it and it’s been too long
So put them dirty dishes down and leave that laundry alone
Come on

Take me by the hand and follow me to our room
You don’t have to tell me this is way over due
I know, so let’s go

I want to be with you
Come let me kiss you
And I don’t mean a peck on the cheek
Girl, tonight I’m makin’ up for lost time
I hope you got a good night’s sleep
I ain’t goin’ to rush it
Girl, you’re goin’ to love it
‘Cause I intend to do it right
But I'll go ahead and warn you
This is going to take all night

Now I don’t understand how life can get in the way
Of me and the prettiest girl in the world makin’ love
But it does

I want to be with you
Come let me kiss you
And I don’t mean a peck on the cheek
Girl, tonight I’m makin’ up for lost time
I hope you got a good night’s sleep
I ain’t goin’ to rush it
Girl, you’re goin’ to love it
‘Cause I intend to do it right
But I'll go ahead and warn you
This is goin’ to take all night

I want to be with you
Come let me kiss you
And I don’t mean a peck on the cheek
Girl, tonight I’m makin’ up for lost time
I hope you got a good night sleep
I’m goin’ to pay attention to every square inch of ya
I intend to do this right
But I'll go ahead and warn you
This is goin’ to take all night

Yeah, I'll show you how I love you
But girl, it’s goin’ to take all night
