I want you to like me, love I’m a hot ride
Be thinkin’ of me, doin’ what you like
So boy, forget about the world
‘Cause it’s gon’ be me and you tonight

Then I’mma make you swallow your pride
Ooh
Want you to make me feel like I’m the only girl in the world
Like I’m the only one that you’ll ever love
Like I’m the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world
Like I’m the only one that’s in command
‘Cause I’m the only one who understands
How to make you feel like a man, yeah
Want you to make me feel like I’m the only girl in the world
Like I’m the only one that you’ll ever love
Like I’m the only one who knows your heart

Want you to take it like a thief in the night
Hold me like a pillow, make me feel right
Baby, I’ll tell you all my secrets that I’m keepin’, you can come inside
And when you enter, you ain’t leavin’, be my prisoner for the night
Ooh

‘Cause I’m the only one who understands
How to make you feel like a man, yeah
Want you to make me feel like I’m the only girl in the world
Like I’m the only one that you’ll ever love
