[Verse 1: Wanya & Mike]
Lying here
With my arms above my head
Hungry for your love
Waiting to be fed
Your body speaks to mine
And I understood every word
Told me that you needed me
At least that's what I heard
I'm trying to hold on
But I don't know for how long
(Don't make me wait too long)

[Chorus]
Love me, lovely
Love me, lovely
Lovely, love me right
Breathe me, taste me
Touch me, take me
In your arms tonight
All I wanna do is
Watch you, watch me
Feel you
Fill me up with pure delight
That makes it easier to
Love thee, lovely
Love me, lovely
Lovely, love me right
Love me right

[Verse 2: Shawn & Mike]
Why don't you tell me
What you want from me, girl
Let me dive into your ocean
So I can find your precious pearls
(I can find your precious...)
As the moon invades our bedroom
And reveals the sweat on your back
It increases my intensity
To go there and never come back
I'm trying to hold on
But I don't know for how long
(I need you)

[Chorus]
Love me, lovely
Love me, lovely
Lovely, love me right
Breathe me, taste me
Touch me, take me
In your arms tonight
All I wanna do is
Watch you, watch me
Feel you
Fill me up with pure delight
That makes it easier to
Love thee, lovely
Love me, lovely
Lovely, love me right
(Love me)
Love me right

[Bridge: Wanya & Nathan & (Mike)]
Oh how you tease me
Driving me crazy
Want you to please me
So come on lady
(Girl, come on)
Coz I'm 'bout to touch
She takes a step back
See her getting excited
By the way I react
Moving in slow
I can smell her perfume
(You smell so good)
She's moving closer still
I know my time's coming soon
(Oh, here it comes)
Baby, are you ready
Can't take it no more
I don't think you're ready
For all that I have in store
I'm trying to hold on
But I don't know for how long
(Come on, girl, I need you
Take me right now)
(Love me
Love me
Love me right now
Touch me
Touch me
I'll make you feel so good)
Lovely lady, love me right
(Right now)
Take me in your arms tonight
(Take me here, baby)
Fill me up with pure delight
(That's what I'm talking about)
Lady, won't you love me right
(I want you so bad)

[Chorus]
Love me, lovely
Love me, lovely
Lovely, love me right
Breathe me, taste me
Touch me, take me
In your arms tonight
All I wanna do is
Watch you, watch me
Feel you
Fill me up with pure delight
That makes it easier to
Love thee, lovely
Love me, lovely
Lovely, love me right
Love me right...

Boyz II Men is an R&B vocal quartet from Philadelphia who became the most successful pop group of the 1990s. They’re best known for their passionate ballads, including the number one hits “End of The Road,” “On Bended Knee,” and “I’ll Make Love To You.”

An early version of the group was founded by Nathan Morris in the mid 1980s while attending the Philadelphia High School for the Creative and Performing Arts, where he recruited students Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman, and Michael McCary. Singer Marc Nelson was also an early member, but left the group before their big break.

The group—who took its name from New Edition’s song “Boys To Men”—was discovered in 1988 after auditioning for New Edition’s Michael Bivins backstage at a concert. Bivins signed the group to his management company and secured them a contract with Motown Records.
