I called you on a Thursday, I waited for your call
You didn't respond to me, yeah
And I called you on a Friday, you didn't respond
I've been waiting patiently
Baby, boom, boom, I can't wait no more
Somebody else is sniffing at my dress, hey
Somebody is checking for a sister
And I'm sorry you're about to get left, oh
I mean I've been waiting patiently for you, honey, I have
Believe that I would lower my steelo
For the call from you but you just won't do
'Cause you don't love me at all
I mean I've been holding it down, yeah
I've been holding it down, and I really don't have to, yeah
I've been wanting you so badly, but sadly, madly
You don't want me too, so I say
I'm sorry I have to drop the bomb this way
I mean there's a lot of things I could say
I could tell you that I really wanted to be with you
But you don't feel me, you can't hear me
I, I got to make this next move
I gotta do what a sister's gotta do
And if that hurts you, well, then it hurts you
I gotta make a move, I'm gonna do it to you like
It's all boom
I'm like boom, I'm like boom
It's like boom
And I'll do what I gotta do, son
Grown woman
Making decisions and choices
Utilizing everything inside of me
My soul, my heart, my mind, my voices
So maybe in the middle of the night
When the dream's just ain't going right
I could use a tug, a hug, kiss
Something strong, something it for a queen
Something passionate, someone with esteem, a king
That'll knock a sister down like
You can hold me close, kiss me nice
Talk to me in the moonlight
You can take my hand, be that strong man
You can hold me close, make me feel
So good and strong as steel
'Cause I am, I just need you man
Oh, I need to get closer
To where I was meant to be
I need to be closer
To where I need to be, baby
So talk to me in my ear
Tell me things that I need to hear
Don't always have to be nice
Don't always have to be
But I need the truth from you
Come and give it to me soon
'Cause I need you
I can't take all of this without loving
Tired of being strong all day
Ooh, I need to get to know you in a familiar way
I can handle it over in the middle of the night
I need something right, I need you to get closer
Come a little bit, come a little bit closer, boy, hey
I need you to get closer too, oh
Um, could you feel the fire in me?
Oh, I need to make it burn, baby
It's all about the way you do what you do
I'm looking for the king in you, let me see it soon
Closer, closer, come closer to me
I need you a little closer
