Let me touch you
Serenade you
Show you all I
All I got
You're the only
One that make me
Wanna tell you
Hmmm, I no be zombie ohh
(On a regular)
Oh I see you ohh oh no
You be baby oh
Make I see your popsi ohh
(On a regular)
Hmm, I no be zombie
Ohh Ohh
I see you oh, I see you
I'm lost & found
Return back
Send it to owner
Baby, I know where my home is
You know I live for the moment
I'm lost & found
Return back
Send it to owner
Baby, I know where my home is
You know I live for the moment
If I could change it all
I would
But let's be honest
We better keepin' our distance
Flag on the play
And it's over
It seems
You'll find another
I'm just a blip of the time
In this dream
The fantasy of love everlasting
Really is bleak
I see her out and that my baby
Love her style so sheik
Let working it out
With action changing
All the affection you need
I can make you feel good
Be the shoulder you can lean on, babe
Make you feel the heat, the vibes
And the feelings
You're the only one I want
You're the only one I need
Show me many things
Show oh oh me
Show me, baby
Let me touch you
Serenade you
Show you all I
All I got
You're the only
One that make me
Wanna tell you
All of my heart
Hmmm, I no be zombie ohh

Oh I see you ohh oh no
Lost and found
Lost and found
Lost and found
(You be baby oh)
Lost and found
Lost and found
Lost and found
(Make I see your popsi ohh)
Lost and found
Lost and found
(I no be zombie)
Lost oooo ohh
Yeah, I see you oh
