Ginuwine can be spotted in one of Jodeci's videos. There, he met rapper Missy Elliott and producer "Timbaland", who became his main collaborators through the 1990s. Ginuwine's first single, the 1996 " Pony" from Ginuwine...The Bachelor, showcased his smooth vocals and Timbaland's innovative production style, and the two became a hit-making duo.
After his second album, 100% Ginuwine, released in 1999, Ginuwine and Timbaland grew apart, and producers such as R. Kelly have crafted hits for him since then. In 2001, Ginuwine had a number-four hit on the Billboard Hot 100 with the single " Differences", which also peaked at number-one on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart. In 2002, Ginuwine was a feature artist on P. Diddy's number-one hit "I Need a Girl (Part II)".
Ginuwine's fifth album, Back II Da Basics, was released on November 15, 2005. The album debuted at number 12 on the Billboard 200, selling close to 100,000 copies. Ginuwine stated on BET's Top 100 countdown that the album went Gold with sales of 500,000 copies.
In May 2007, an album entitled I Apologize was released in stores. Although attributed to Ginuwine, the release was an unauthorized album and only included three Ginuwine songs - apparently from stolen masters - and ten songs by other artists. Ginuwine spoke against the unofficial release on both his MySpace page and through YouTube.
Ginuwine's sixth album entitled A Man's Thoughts, was released on June 23, 2009. Ginuwine formed a group with Tank and Tyrese named TGT. Their first single was a remix of Tank's "Please Don't Go". They were supposed to tour but plans fell apart due to conflicting schedules.
Ginuwine announced on his Myspace Blog on August 21, 2008 that due to label and legal issues they will not be able to release an official TGT album. Ginuwine is the founder and CEO of LoveSong Incorporated, after completing his contract with 550 Music/Epic. Ginuwine announced on his Myspace blog on August 21, 2008 that he signed a major label deal with Notifi Records/Warner Brothers.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dang girl your lips are so soft
I can't control it when your with me
And I really want you just to take it off
I can't control myself
I think about it even when I'm by myself
All I want is you open the door
[Chorus]
You can be my lover you can be my friend
Just open up girl and let me in
Open the door let me be your baby
I want to be your man
Here I come girl oh let me in
Open the door ay ay ay yeah
Open the door ay ay ay yeah
Open the door ay ay ay yeah open the door
Girl your body is the greatest
I wanna hold on and never let go
Oh can't you feel the anticipation
I wanna lock you inside your door
I can't control myself
I think about it even when I'm by myself
All I want is you open the door
[Chorus]
I want you
I think of how it feels when I'm with you
Unlocking your doors to get in
You knock knock let me in
Girl I'm coming in
Open your door open the door for me
[Chorus]
