I Would Like Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I didn't know that I could want you so deep
As when I saw you with someone who's not me
You got me playin' in a game that ain't fair
But you're takin' me there
Yeah, you're takin' me there
[Pre-Chorus]
(Oh) I can't help myself, it's human nature
Human nature
Who's to say what's meant to be?
(Oh) Why can't we be on our worst behavior?
Worst behavior
When it comes so naturally?
[Chorus]
I would like to get to know you, baby
Like to get under your sexy body
I would like to get to know you, baby
Like to get under your sexy body
Woah, woah
Under your sexy body
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh) Under your sexy body
(Oh) Under your sexy body
I didn't know that I could want you so deep
As when I saw you with someone who's not me
You got me playin' in a game that ain't fair
But you're takin' me there
Yeah, you're takin' me there
[Pre-Chorus]
(Oh) I can't help myself, it's human nature
Human nature
Who's to say what's meant to be?
(Oh) Why can't we be on our worst behavior?
Worst behavior
When it comes so naturally?
[Chorus]
I would like to get to know you, baby
Like to get under your sexy body
I would like to get to know you, baby
Like to get under your sexy body
Woah, woah
Under your sexy body
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh) Under your sexy body
(Oh) Under your sexy body
[Verse 2]
Know what you're doing when you hold it like that (Like that)
Lookin' at me to see if I'm looking back
But me and you both know where tonight is gon' lead (Gon' lead)
'Cause you're leavin' with me (Leaving with me)
Yeah, you're leavin' with me, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
(Oh) I can't help myself, it's human nature
Human nature
Who's to say what's meant to be?
(Who's to say what's meant to be?)
