Do you know how lucky I feel I am 
To find a man who loves me, as I am 
You never try to change a single part of me 
You're easy to love, with those qualities 

An everyday you teach me more and more 
Inside me I want a glow 
And every night you think of only me 
The way you keep me satisfied 

You do all the things I like 
I want ya, oh I want ya so 
Do you want it right now 
Oh, I can't let go 

I want ya so bad, give me all you have 
I can show you now, do you want it right now 
You have a rare sensitivity 
I really believe you know how to feel 

I trust you with all my heart and soul 
You care to much too let me take control 
And every day you teach me more and more 
Inside me, I want to glow 

And every night you think of only me 
Oh you keep me satisfied, you do all the things I like

Oh I can't let go 
Want ya so bad, give me all you have 
I can show you how, do you want it right now 
Do you want it, want it right now baby

Do you want it, want it right now 
I can hear it from ya right now 
Do ya want it want it right now 

Right here, right now, right now, right now 
I want you screaming, screaming 
Everyday you teach me more and more 
Inside me I want to glow 

And every night you think of only me 
The way you keep me satisfied, you do all the things I like

Oh can't let go, I want ya so bad give me all you have
