[Verse 1]
Sleep, my love
Don't you worry
You just sleep, my love
And I'll stroke your hair
Oh, the sunlight on your face
As the day begins to break

When you wake
And your smile meets mine
Now my day begins
You're my inspiration
Seeing your face glow
Is the nicest of hellos

[Refrain]
Five 'til noon
You sneak up from behind
Kiss and caress me
Make love to my mind
A whisper and a kiss from you
Warms my heart
Means so much
Making love our way

[Bridge]
Can you feel it? Can you, can you feel it?
Can you feel it? Can you, can you feel it?
Can you feel it? Can you, can you feel it?
Can you feel it? Can you, can you feel it?
Early in the day

You walk in the room
In a sunset sort of mood
My emotions light up 'cause of you
Now that evening's come
We're dressed for us, my love
Wine and candles puts us in a sexy mood

[Refrain]
Five 'til noon
You sneak up from behind
Kiss and caress me
Make love to my mind
A whisper and a kiss from you
Warms my heart
Means so much
Making love our way

[Outro]
Twenty foreplay
Twenty foreplay
Can you feel it? Can you, can you feel it?
Can you feel it? Can you, can you feel it?
Can you feel it? Can you, can you feel it?
Can you feel it? Can you, can you feel it?

Janet Damita Jo Jackson is an iconic R&B/pop artist who has sold over 100 million records worldwide and has amassed a number of awards in her illustrious music career.

Born in Gary, Indiana on May 16, 1966, Janet is the youngest of the Jackson family, who rose to prominence a few years after her birth when they signed with Motown Records. Janet joined the family business when she appeared on The Jacksons variety show in 1976, leading to her role as Penny Gordon in Season 5 of the CBS sitcom Good Times. She released two overlooked albums in the early 1980s—Janet Jackson (1982) and Dream Street (1984)—and continued to act during this time, appearing in Diff'rent Strokes and Fame.

The legend of Janet was created after she connected with the legendary Minneapolis production duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis to work on her seminal third album, Control. Control and her following album, 1989’s Rhythm Nation 1814, featured several #1 pop hits and made her a worldwide superstar. The trio would go on work on Janet’s subsequent hit albums, including janet., The Velvet Rope, as well as her 2015 comeback album, Unbreakable.
