Usher Ft BabyFace Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

That's right
I just want you so much
Can I have you, baby?
Do you hear me, baby?

Craving your body all through the night
Feels like I'm going through withdrawals
I want to hold you
I want you inside of these arms
I'm dying to taste you I can't deny
Can't get it out of my mind
Please let me hold you
'Cause I need your lovin' tonight

Whenever I'm near you
My love just comes down (just comes down)
Whenever I see you
I just want you around
'Cause I want to feel you
All through the day and the night (oh, baby)
Whenever I'm near you
It feels like bedtime

Constantly thinking of things to do
Places where we can make love
'Cause I want to freak you
I'll freak you wherever you want
Placing my kisses all over you
Caressing you so nice and slow
Oh, how I want you
Girl, there's something I want you to know

Whenever I'm near you
My love just comes down (just comes down)
Whenever I see you
I just want you around
(I just want it, baby, I just want it, baby)
'Cause I want to feel you
All through the day and the night (oh)
Whenever I'm near you (near you)
It feels like bedtime

Do you get lonely (ooh, I get lonely)
Thinking about me? (Thinking about you, yeah)
Am I the only?
(Girl I think of or dream of at all)
Are you into me, out your mind for me?
Say you can't go a day without me
Girl, I love you and I want you
And I need you, I need you, I need you

Whenever I'm near you
My love just comes down (just comes down)
Whenever I see you
I just want you around
(Oh, I want you, I want you)
'Cause I want to feel you (feel you)
All through the day and the night
Whenever I'm near you (ohh, you)
It feels like bedtime

Whenever I'm near you
My love just comes down (just comes down)
Whenever I see you
I just want you around
(I just need you)
'Cause I want to feel you
All through the day and the night
Whenever I'm near you
It feels like bedtime
(It feels like bedtime, ohh)





It feels like bedtime, babe
