Sensuous Whisper
I've seen you, I saw you, I see you
Without little notice, if any at all
Of you knowing me watchin' you
You're walking, you're talking, you're smiling
You're styling in everything your body wears
And that's not just a point of view
They're panting, they're ranting, they're raving
About Miss Lovely, got it going on
From her head down to her toes
And no one knows better than I know
'Cause I've been listening to the spirit of
Your body, mind and soul
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That makes my body weak
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That's sweeter than the sweetest sweet
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That makes my psyche say
Ooh-we, ooh-wee, ooh-we...
Can hear you, can smell you, can taste you
I thought my senses never had the pleasure of
That lovely wonderment
But I start to shaking, I shiver, to think that little sparkle in your eye
Means you're giving me some kind of hint
I'm ready, I'm willing, I'm able
In fact those words are at the tip of my tongue
Eagerly waiting for me to say
Then you smile and whisper, "How are you?"
But when I move my lips and try to speak
The words just go away
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That makes my body weak
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That's sweeter than the sweetest sweet
(That sensuous whisper)
That makes my psyche say
Ooh-we, ooh-wee, ooh-we...
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That's got me trippin' out
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That I don't wanna do without
(That sensuous whisper)
That makes me want to shout
Ooh-we, ooh-wee, ooh-we...
I don't even care how long it takes
As long as I have you lying next to me
'Cause to wait forever and a day
Is a small price to pay if it's you I'm getting
If it's you I'm getting, I'm not quitting, not quitting
And that is how I'm living
I'm clinging, not dreaming, but scheming
With my nose against the grind and both my eyes
Focused upon the prize
I think it, I trust it, I know it
Your love that I've longed for is gonna be mine
Good things do come in time
I'm right on the rhythm you're givin'
But this is more than giving up some casual mental telepathy
The music, the candles, the champagne and all that's needed
Is one thing to give it authenticity
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That makes my body weak
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That's sweeter than the sweetest sweet
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That makes my psyche say
Ooh-we, ooh-wee, ooh-we...
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That's got me trippin' out
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That I don't wanna do without
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That makes me want to shout
Baby ooh-we, ooh-wee, ooh-we...
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That makes my body rock
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That makes me beg baby, don't ever stop
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That always get me hot, baby
Ooh-we, ooh-wee, ooh-we...
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That makes me feel alright
(It's that sensuous whisper)
That keeps me wanting you morning, noon and every single night
(It's that sensuous whisper)
Don't want you out of my sight, baby
Ooh-we, ooh-wee, ooh-we...
(It's that sensuous whisper) sensuous whisper, baby
(It's that sensuous whisper) oh sensuous whisper
(It's that sensuous whisper) sensuous whisper, all night we're making it
Ooh-we, ooh-wee, ooh-we...
(It's that sensuous whisper) yeah
Without little notice, if any at all
Of you knowing me watchin' you
You're walking, you're talking, you're smiling
You're styling in everything your body wears
