Ooh, oh
Ooh, oh
Ooh, oh
How many people know about
That, that in the middle of the night love
You know brown folks know what I'm talkin' about
y'all know what this is
So, so def
Ooh, it's midnight
And I'm tappin' you on the shoulder
I just got home from work
And I wanna do you know what
(Hey)
Yeah, it's 12:02
And I'm slidin' up under the covers
I'm leavin' on my socks
'Cause I got my mind on lovin' you
Don't understand enough
How we feel about, now you know
When I get like this somethin' is gonna happen
And you have the means to make me feel
Like I'm welcome you got a lot but as sweet as candy
I don't ever wanna stop, baby
Give me just
(A little more kissin')
Baby, would you give me just
(A little more feelin')
Oh, give me just a little more love
(Baby)
Give me just

Baby, would you give me just
(A little more rubbin')
Oh, give me just a little more love
It's so special
(When you come alive)
It's so special
(When you get it right)
Ooh, it's so special
(When you call my name)
Mean what you say
It don't take ya long to get in the groove of thangs
To get in the move of thangs that you like and I like
Lord, it only takes one touch
To get you to do the thangs that I love so much
Baby, I'm a sucker for you
Don't understand enough
How we feel about, now you know
When I get like this, somethin' is gonna happen
And you have the means to make me feel like I'm welcome
You got it a lot but as sweet as candy
I don't ever wanna stop, baby
Give me just
