“Slide” is the lead single from Sy Smith’s sixth album Until We Meet Again.

[Verse 1]
Don’t make me a liar
I said what I said
Waitin’ on you, baby
To put this whole thing to bed
Can’t put out this fire without gettin’ wet
Breathing life into my embers, baby
Are we burnin’ yet?
(Are we burnin’, are we burnin’ yet?)
(Are we burnin’, are we burnin’ yet?)
Are we burnin’ yet? (Overturning all of your objections)
Are we burnin’ yet? (You keep holding back when I’m offering my affection)
[Pre-Chorus]
Start the clock, I can’t wait anymore
It’s unlocked, I’m standing by the door
You can watch me work, head to the floor
(This is an) Invitation for you to
[Chorus]
Slide on through (slide, slide on)
Slide on through (slide, slide on)
Slide on through (slide, slide on)
Oooh (slide, slide on)
Slide on through (slide, slide on)
(slide, slide on)
Slide on through (slide, slide on)
Oooh (slide)
[Verse 2]
Give into desire
Kiss me and her reign
My love be liberation, babe
Let me emancipate your pain
Our freedom flows like water
Rinsing off the stains
Of your lack of satisfaction
At home where you remain
[Pre-Chorus]
Start the clock, I can’t wait anymore
It’s unlocked, I’m standing by the door
You can watch me work, head to the floor
(This is your) Invitation for you to
[Chorus]
Slide on through (slide, slide on)
Slide on through, baby (slide, slide on)
Slide (slide, slide on)
Oooh (slide, slide on)
Slide on through (slide, slide on)
(slide, slide on)
Slide (slide, slide on)
Oooh (slide)
[Vamp:]
You don’t wanna let another lover get in the way
Get in the way, get in the way
You don’t wanna let another lover get in the way
Get in the way, get in the way
