*******************************************
* Intro I've been watching you from afar,
(spoken) For as long as I can remember.
You're all a grown man can need and ever asked for.
This is love, girl.
This is more than a crush.
* Verse 1 It was Harlem at "The Buckers", I saw you wit' your man
Smilin', huh, I caught your bag in your hand.
I was layin' in the coupe with my hat turned back.
We caught eyes for a moment, and that was that.
So I skated off, as you strolled off,
Lookin' at them legs, goddamn they looked so soft.
I gotta take you from your man, that's my mission
If this love has really got to handle competition.
You only knew her five months.
Besides, you drink too much and smoke too many ......
And I be workin' out ev'ryday, thinkin' 'bout you,
Lookin' at my own eyes in the rear-view.
Get ya flashbacks of an eye contact.
Wish I could lay ya on your stomach and caress your back.
I would hold you in my arms and ease your fears.
I can't believe it, I ain't had a crush in years.
Hey love.
* Chorus (Hey lover, hey lover)
This is more than a crush.
(Hey lover, hey lover,
This is more than a crush.
Lover, hey lover),
This is more than a crush.
(Hey lover, hey lover,
This is more than a crush)
* Verse 2 I see you at the bus stop, waitin' ev'ryday.
Your man must think it's safe for you to travel that way.
And I don't wanna violate your relationship
So I lay back in the cut with a crush that's a trip.
Still, he can't stop me from havin' daydreams,
Tonin' ya down with, uh, vanilla ice-cream.
Kissin' on your thighs under moonlight,
Searchin' your body with my toungue, girl, all night.
I wonder one day could it be
Simple dreams could turn into reality?
Our love would come down so naturally.
We would walk down the aisle of destiny.
Would your man get his hustle on, got ya type scared,
Break ya off a little chump change to do your hair?
It seems to be enough to satisfy your needs
But there's a deeper level if you follow our lead.
Hey love.
* (epeat chorus)
Verse 3 Last week I saw you at the mall
Standin' at the payphone, 'bout to make a call.
I had a vision it was me on the other end
Tellin' you, "Come by", and then you walked in.
I touched you gently with my hands.
We talked about travelin' to distant lands,
Escin' all the madness out here in the world,
Becomin' my wife, no longer my girl.
Then you let your dress fall down to the floor.
I kissed you softly and you yearned for more.
We experienced pleasure unparallel.
Into an ocean of love we both fell.
Swimmin' in the timeless currents of pure bliss,
Fantasies interchangin' with each kiss.
Undyin' passion unites our souls.
Together we swim until the point of no control.
But, it's a fantasy, you won't come true.
We never even spoke and your man swear he love you.
So I'm-a keep all these feelings inside,
Keep my dreams alive until the right time.
Hey love.
* (Repeat chorus twice)
