I Like Lyrics
[Intro]
(I like) Girl, words can't express the way I feel for you
(I like) The way you hold me, the way you touch me
(I like) Girl, everything you do to me, you know I like it
(I like) Don't stop now
[Chorus]
(I like) Ooh, hey
(I like) Oh, oh, oh (I like the way)
(I like) Ooh, hey
(I like) Oh, oh, oh (I like the way)
[Verse 1]
My dreams are now reality
Each and every time you are here with me
The touch you give me with your hands
When you caress my skin, I'm under your command
Girl, you hypnotize me with your eyes
It took me some time (Ooh, babe), but now I realize
It's you to whom which I belong
I love it, the feeling's getting strong
[Chorus]
(I like) The things you do to me
(I like) It brings out ecstasy
(I like) It really turns me on (I like the way)
(I like) The feeling's getting strong (I like the way)
(I like) Girl, words can't express the way I feel for you
(I like) The way you hold me, the way you touch me
(I like) Girl, everything you do to me, you know I like it
(I like) Don't stop now
[Chorus]
(I like) Ooh, hey
(I like) Oh, oh, oh (I like the way)
(I like) Ooh, hey
(I like) Oh, oh, oh (I like the way)
[Verse 1]
My dreams are now reality
Each and every time you are here with me
The touch you give me with your hands
When you caress my skin, I'm under your command
Girl, you hypnotize me with your eyes
It took me some time (Ooh, babe), but now I realize
It's you to whom which I belong
I love it, the feeling's getting strong
[Chorus]
(I like) The things you do to me
(I like) It brings out ecstasy
(I like) It really turns me on (I like the way)
(I like) The feeling's getting strong (I like the way)
[Verse 2]
Oh, girl, you are my lover
When I'm with you, there is no other
A spell you got me under
Please don't you leave, I'm on my hands and knees
Words can't express the way I feel
Emotions for you are so real (Oh)
Girl, you love me over and over again
Don't stop, please don't let it end
[Chorus]
(I like) The things you do to me
(I like) It brings out ecstasy
(I like) It really turns me on (I like the way)
(I like) The feeling's getting strong (I like the way)

What did Guy say about "I Like"?
Genius Answer
In an April 2012 interview with Soul Culture, Teddy Riley said:
Timmy had the idea and the lyrics for “I Like.” He just started singing them and after I heard the lyric “My dreams are now reality,” I started cooking up chords to go with it. I was doing hip-hop beats and marrying them to some chords and that’s how we came up with this song.
How did the single chart?
Is there a live performance of the track?
