[Verse 1: Ciara]
I hope I don’t make you mad, with what I’m ‘bout to say, boy
Here we are once again, and I’m havin' second thoughts, boy
I’m not messin' with your head, but I changed my mind, boy
I don’t know why I’m here, the same time I want you near
If you want me to leave, I will understand
See, I will just have to respect your wishes, boy
'Cause if I stay, ain't no tellin' what may happen, boy
Although you look so good to me, it's best that I leave
[Chorus: Ciara]
I’m scared of being next to you, because of what I think I might do
Boy, you're turnin' me on right now
I can’t get down like that right now
I don’t want to disturb the flow, but this is not my M.O.,
Hold up, wait a minute, we’re movin' too fast
I want somethin' like this here to last
[Post-Chorus: R. Kelly]
Don’t say no, baby, not right now, baby
I want you to be my lady, you got me goin’ crazy
[Verse 2: Ciara]
Well, I guess I’ll stay for a minute, then I have to go, boy
This moment is so temptin’
Right now, it’s not what I want, boy
Maybe if we just embrace, with a simple kiss, boy
But that'll only make things worse
Hope I’m not gettin’ on your nerves, boy
I just wanted to be right for the both of us
When you don’t have to say a thing to make me comfortable
Boy, you make me so weak when you look at me
Right now I’m a little confused, I think it's best that I refuse
[Chorus: Ciara]
I’m scared of being next to you, because of what I think I might do
Boy, you're turnin' me on right now, I can’t get down like that right now
I don’t want to disturb the flow, but this is not my M.O
Hold up, wait a minute, we’re movin' too fast
I want somethin' like this here to last
[Bridge: Ciara]
Supposed to be playin' cards, or watchin' a movie
But we keep lockin' eyes, boy, now why are you tryin' to tease me?
This room is gettin' heated, won't you open up a window?
I think that I should go now, 'cause I can't take this no more
[Chorus: Ciara]
I’m scared of being next to you, because of what I think I might do
Boy, you're turnin' me on right now, I can’t get down like that right now
I don’t want to disturb the flow, but this is not my M.O
Hold up, wait a minute, we’re movin' too fast
I want somethin' like this here to last
I’m scared of being next to you, because of what I think I might do
Boy, you're turnin' me on right now, I can’t get down like that right now
I don’t want to disturb the flow, but this is not my M.O
Hold up, wait a minute, we’re movin' too fast
I want somethin' like this here to last
I’m scared of being next to you, because of what I think I might do
Boy, you're turnin' me on right now, I can’t get down like that right now
I don’t want to disturb the flow, but this is not my M.O
Hold up, wait a minute, we’re movin' too fast
I want somethin' like this here to last
