[Intro]
We 'bout to take y'all way back

[Chorus]
Til the

Til the
(Morning, to the sweet stuff, let me heat up)
Make me lose my mind, lose track of time
But I gotta work
(Morning, can you touch me, can you help me?)

[Verse 1]
You keep sending messages you wanting me
But instant messages don't be as cold
If you wanna get me, put your energy
You should try it in my ear, not on the phone

[Pre-Chorus]
(Hey hey)
I'm sensitive when you come close
Boy, come on 'cause I'm getting warm
(Oh oh)
I love it when you do that soul
Turn it up, that turns me on

[Chorus]
Til the
(Morning, can you touch me, can you help me?)
Til the
(Morning, to the sweet stuff, let me heat up)
Make me lose my mind, lose track of time
But I gotta work
(Morning, can you touch me, can you help me?)

[Verse 2]
I can see you now, what's wrapped up in the sheet
You got me going crazy, screaming more
If you wanna get me like you want me to be
Then you gotta stop me from dancing on the floor, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
(Hey hey)
I'm sensitive when you come close
Boy, come on 'cause I'm getting warm
(Oh oh)
I love it when you do that soul
Turn it up, that turns me on

[Chorus]
Til the
(Morning, can you touch me, can you help me?)
Til the
(Morning, to the sweet stuff, let me heat up)
Make me lose my mind, lose track of time
But I gotta work
(Morning, can you touch me, can you help me?)

[Bridge]
Okay, we gonna take y'all to the rooftop, c'mon
Touch me, hold me, kiss me closely
Teach me, show me, enjoy me
Touch me, hold me, kiss me closely
Teach me, show me, enjoy me

Now did you like it?
How did you feel?
Was it good to ya?
Can you get a little more?
But relax now, baby
Let me ease your mind
Let me get it together
And I'll be ready to go, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
(Hey hey) Hey, baby
I'm sensitive when you come close
(So sensitive)
Boy, come on 'cause I'm getting warm
(Oh oh)
I love it when you do that soul
I love it, baby
Turn it up, that turns me on
Turn me on

[Chorus]
Til the
(Morning, can you touch me, can you help me?)
Til the
(Morning, to the sweet stuff, let me heat up)
Make me lose my mind, lose track of time
But I gotta work
(Morning, can you touch me, can you help me?)

[Outro]
Touch me, hold me, kiss me closely
Teach me, show me, enjoy me
Touch me, hold me, kiss me closely
Teach me, show me, enjoy me
Touch me, hold me, kiss me closely
Teach me, show me, enjoy me
Touch me, hold me, kiss me closely
Teach me, show me, enjoy me

Mary Jane Blige (b. Jan 11 1971) grew up in the projects of Yonkers, New York. A random decision to record a cover of “Caught Up in the Rapture” by Anita Baker in a pop-up recording booth at a mall led MJB to getting signed by Uptown Entertainment. After providing background vocals on Father MC’s hit single “I’ll Do 4 U” in 1990, a young intern at Uptown named Sean “Puffy” Combs ended up executive producing Mary’s 1992 debut album What’s The 411?. Fusing hip-hop beats with Mary’s soulful voice earned her the nickname “Queen of Hip-Hop Soul”.

She followed up her debut with a string of critically acclaimed albums, including 1994’s My Life and 1997’s Share My World, as well as hit singles such as “Not Gon' Cry,” “Family Affair,” “Be Without You,” and “Just Fine.”

She also collaborated with rappers on a number of tracks, including Jay-Z’s “Can’t Knock the Hustle,” Ghostface Killah’s “All That I Got is You,” Wyclef’s “911,” Common’s “Come Close,” and Method Man’s “I’ll Be There for You/All I Need to Get By,” which was a platinum hit and won the two of them a Grammy Award in 1996 for Best Rap Performance By a Duo or Group.
