Oh, I've been thinking of you
And you've been thinking of me
Oh, I'll give all that I have
If you'll give all that I need
And oh, oh, oh, lets be fair
And I think its time we cleared the air
You've been watching you, I've been watching you
You know I've been wantin to groove with you
Girl, speak your mind
Groove with you
You been thinking all of this time
Groove with you
Aw baby what I wouldn't do
Groove with you
Just spending my days with you

Oh, love is all in your eyes
Love fire is burning for me
You stay all in my mind
Oh woman, its easy to see
Oh, let's be fair
You know its time we cleared the air

You've been watching me, I've been watching you
You know, you know
Groove with you
Oh I want a groove, I want a groove
Groove with you
I've been thinking, you've been thinking, thinking of me
Groove with you
Oh what I wouldn't do to groove with you

Groove with you
You've been watching, I been watching watching you
Groove with you




And every chance I get, from the first time we meet
I want a groove with you

I was born in 1997, and I have a different look toward The Isley Brothers because my parents played this when I was a kid. I found out in high school that this is from the 1970s which blew my mind but I always think about the early 2000's. So to everyone who grew up on this, I'm with y'all. Age doesn't matter, great music lives forever.
