Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You want me to talk, I don't wanna talk, I'm watching you dance
Wanna play games, I wanna play games, I'm taking my chance
Been leaving fast, this life's in a rush, as we understand
Hey, I'm never gonna lose my faith
Cause your body
Body, got me thinking and thinking
Your body
Body, got me singing and singing
Your body
Body, got me thinking and thinking
Your body, body
Yeah yeah I don't wanna go home if you're not there
Don't wanna go to bed if you're not there
Don't wanna go to clubs with the boys if the time at the clubs gonna lead to disaster
I follow your body, every motion
I'm falling into you like you're ocean
Girl, you are what I want, and you got what I need, please, just don't make it hard baby
Don't play with my feelings baby
I've been through a lot baby
I'm far from my ceiling baby
I ain't gonna stop there
I ain't gonna stop there
I owe no apologies for how I feel
I want you for my life for sure
Baby you blow my mind for sure
I know it's gonna take time to show
Hmmm so I ain't gonna stop here
I ain't gonna stop here
Gonna show you to the lights
No, I ain't gonna stop here
You want me to talk, I don't wanna talk, I'm watching you dance
Wanna play games, I wanna play games, I'm taking my chance
Been leaving fast, this life's in a rush, as we understand
Hey, I'm never gonna lose my faith
Cause your body
Body, got me thinking and thinking
Your body
Body, got me singing and singing
Your body
Body, got me thinking and thinking
Your body, body
Yeah baby your beauty's dangerous
Take my heart out I'm serious
Baby, you're kind, you're soft
I'd give my life to wake up to your eyes
I don't take you for granted
You can take charge I won't say no
If I got you, I got enough
I will look for love no more
When I pull up you'll hear me blasting all the songs I'll sing for you
I told you 4:45, I'll pull up at 42
Baby, I'm gon change your life
Baby girl, now you ride in style
No no you can't bring your friends
I only got room for two of us
Yeah the two of us
The two of us
Yeah the two of us
You want me to talk, I don't wanna talk, I'm watching you dance
Wanna play games, I wanna play games, I'm taking my chance
Been leaving fast, this life's in a rush, as we understand
Hey, I'm never gonna lose my faith
Cause your body
Body, got me thinking and thinking
Your body
Body, got me singing and singing
Your body




Body, got me thinking and thinking
Your body, body
