[Intro]
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?

[Verse 1]
You get inside of me and I don't even
(Know how to act, girl)
You have synergy that gets in me that's
(That's better than sex)
When we get inimate it's got to be as
(As good as it gets)
And I just can't wait to get home
Your sexuality it smothers me and
(And less I forget)
My own reality is fantasy
(I just got to admit)
That I desire you and think of you like
(Like all through the day)
That I just can't wait to get home
Girl I be...

[Chorus]
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day thinkin' about you
I be
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day dreamin' about you
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day thinkin' about you, girl...
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?

[Verse 2]
You are the good in me, the bad in me
(The love of my life)
You are the up in me, the down I me
(The wrong and the right)
And you are there for me to care for me
(At the end of each day)
And I just can't wait to get home
Your sexuality, it captures me
(And blows me away)
That I must think of thee at least a thousand
(A thousand times in a day)
And I so desire you and want for you
(Like all of the time)
And I just can't wait to get home, girl I be...

[Chorus]
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day thinkin' about you
I be
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day dreamin' about you
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day thinkin' about you
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?

[Bridge]
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
Girl, you know I do, I do
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
Every night and day
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?

[Chorus]
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day thinkin' about you
I be
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day dreamin' about you
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day thinkin' about you
(I'm thinkin' about you, baby)
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
(All day, yeah) Girl, I be...

Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day thinkin' about you
I be
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day dreamin' about you
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?
All day thinkin' about you
Do you be thinkin' 'bout me, baby love?

Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds (born April 10, 1959 in Indianapolis, Indiana) is a Grammy Award-winning producer, singer, and songwriter responsible for a string of hits in the 1980s and 1990s. He has written and produced more than 20 number-one hits and won 11 Grammys—including three for Producer of the Year—for his work with Boyz II Men, Whitney Houston, Eric Clapton, Alicia Keys, and Toni Braxton, as well as his own work as an artist.

Babyface got his nickname from funk legend Bootsy Collins after joining his backing band in the 1970s. He joined the group Manchild in the late ‘70s—a group that also included his frequent collaborator Daryl Simmons—before moving out West and working with the group The Deele in the early 1980s, forming a bond with his bandmate and future production partner L.A. Reid. After producing the hit “Two Occasions” for The Deele, L.A. & Babyface broke off and became one of the biggest superproducer duos in R&B, rivaling the hits of fellow superproducer duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis.

L.A. & ‘Face had their hands in a string of #1 R&B hits in the late '80s and early '90s from artists such as Pebbles (“Girlfriend”), Karyn White (“Superwoman”), The Whispers (“Rock Steady”), Johnny Gill (“My, My, My”) and many more. They were also instrumental in the success of post-New Edition era Bobby Brown as they produced his #1 hits “Don’t Be Cruel,” “Every Little Step,” “On Our Own,” and “Humpin' Around.” They made history with Boyz II Men in 1992 as they wrote and produced “End of the Road,” which spent a record-breaking 14 consecutive weeks atop the pop chart.
