After the 2000 album Nathan Shawn Michael Wanya, Boyz II Men moved to Arista Records. In 2003, Michael McCary left the group due to chronic back problems resulting from scoliosis. As of 2005, Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman, and Nathan Morris continue to tour and record as a trio.

Boyz II Men Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sexual, natural, the feeling that you give me
We've been there before, now is now
And I see no signs of a slowing down
Girl you're so beautiful
I just wanna lay back and watch you rock me
Slowly, slowly, slowly
Like you own me
I feel you rock me slowly, slowly, slowly
Love your body on me, on me
Like you own me
God no, where to go it's just you and me and the radio
And your warm skin, cold wine
And holding you as you moving in a slow grind
Having you in my bed fulfills every fantasy in my head
As we make this memory
Nothing better than for me to watch you rock me
Slowly, slowly, slowly
Love your body on me, on me
Like you own me
(And when you do it to me it's like a work of art, yeah)
I feel you rock me slowly, slowly, slowly
Love your body on me, on me (on me)
Like you own me
Baby slow it down gently rock it back
To the end then rewind it back oh
Right now you're a part of me, I know you're a part of me
Inside is where I have to be
We can do it like it's supposed to be done
And together we will become one
Feel my love, my love is just for you
Watch you rock me
Slowly, slowly, slowly
Love your body on me, on me
Like you own me
I feel you rock me slowly, slowly, slowly
Love your body on me, on me
Like you own me
Watch you rock me
Slowly, slowly, slowly
Love your body on me, on me
Like you own me
I feel you rock me slowly, slowly, slowly
Love your body on me, on me
Like you own me

Nightfall, here we are making love histories
It's night time and we're creating a memory that will last forever
Sexual, natural, the feeling that you give me
Our lovemaking is both passionate and effortless
We've been there before, now is now
We've had moments like this before, but we're in the present moment right now
And I see no signs of a slowing down
We're not going to stop anytime soon
Girl you're so beautiful
You're incredibly attractive to me
I just wanna lay back and watch you rock me
I just want to relax and enjoy the pleasure you're giving me
Slowly, slowly, slowly
I want this to last as long as possible
Love your body on me, on me
I love feeling your body against mine
Like you own me
You're in control and I'm happy to let you take charge
God no, where to go it's just you and me and the radio
We don't need anything else besides each other and some background music
And your warm skin, cold wine
The contrast of your warm skin against the cold glass of wine is a unique sensation
And holding you as you moving in a slow grind
I love the way you move against me and I'm holding on tight to this moment
Having you in my bed fulfills every fantasy in my head
You're everything I've ever dreamed of and having you here with me is perfect
As we make this memory
We're creating a moment that will last forever
Nothing better than for me to watch you rock me
I'm content just to watch and feel you pleasure me
Baby slow it down gently rock it back
Take it easy and enjoy the ride
To the end then rewind it back oh
Let's start all over again and take it to the end
Right now you're a part of me, I know you're a part of me
In this moment, you're a crucial part of who I am
Inside is where I have to be
In your arms is where I feel at home
We can do it like it's supposed to be done
We're doing this the way it's meant to be, with passion and love
And together we will become one
Our bodies are coming together in harmony
Feel my love, my love is just for you
My feelings for you are real and intense
Watch you rock me
I'm going to lay back and enjoy the pleasure that you're giving me
