[Verse 1]
We've been here once or twice before
In the fire between is and what will be
My desire for you is two months strong
And I'm ready for what tonight might bring

[Pre-Chorus]
I aim to please, baby, give it to me
I've been holding back these feelings for so long

[Chorus]
So tell me you don't have to go
Tell me you don't have to leave
I know you want me as much as I want you
So tell me what's it gonna be

[Verse 2]
I've been open for you from day one
Fantasizing about all the possibilities
Anticipation has got me coming undone
You're about to see a different side of me

[Pre-Chorus]
I aim to please, baby, give it to me
I've been holding back these feelings for so long

[Chorus]
So tell me you don't have to go
And tell me you don't have to leave
I know you want me as much as I want you
So tell me what's it gonna be

[Bridge]
Tonight's the night
Love light in flight
Nice and slow
Tokyo
Let if flow
No regrets
Soft and wet
Don't forget
Ribbon in the sky

I.G.Y
In the air tonight
Superstar
Wanna be where you are
Oh, then let's do it again

[Chorus]
So tell me you don't have to go
And tell me you don't have to leave
I know you want me as much as I want you
So tell me what's it gonna be
(What's it gonna be? What's it gonna be?)
Tell me you don't have to go
Tell me you don't have to leave
I know you want me as much as I want you
So tell me what's it gonna be

Brian McKnight (born June 5, 1969) is an American R&B singer-songwriter, arranger, producer, and musician. He is a multi-instrumentalist who plays eight instruments including piano, guitar, bass guitar, percussion, trombone, tuba, flugelhorn and trumpet. He is one of the very few leggiero tenors in the pop genre. McKnight is perhaps most recognized for his strong falsetto and belting range. McKnight’s work has earned him 16 Grammy Awards nominations, though he has never won. Actually, he is currently tied with Snoop Dogg for the record of most Grammy nominations without a win.
