[Verse 1]
Glass of wine, candlelight
Music made for quiet times
I'm feelin' mellow
I need my sweetie pie
Here to lay me out tonight
I want it, I want it but I can't get it

[Chorus]
Take good care of me tonight
At home I'm so alone
I'm wishin' you were here
Baby, tonight my bed is cold
I'm wishin' you were near
'Cause I'm in a sexy mood
And only you can fill my needs
I'll lay here and take care of it 'til you come home to me

[Verse 2]
Always sound sensuous any time we pillow talk
Using such few words
I get sensitive when you work
It feels so good when it hurts
Always want more and more
And I know you can't be here
That usually don't faze me
I need you tonight
Boy, it's drivin' me crazy
Yearnin' inside with this burnin' desire
I want it, I want it but I just can't get it from you

[Chorus]
Take good care of me tonight
At home I'm so alone
I'm wishin' you were here
Baby, tonight my bed is cold
I'm wishin' you were near
'Cause I'm in a sexy mood
And only you can fill my needs
I'll lay here and take care of it 'til you come home to me

[Bridge]
Ah, ah, take care of me
Ah, ah, fulfill my needs
Ah ah, take care of me
Ah, ah, take care of me
Ah, ah, fulfill my needs
Ah, ah, whatever you can be
Ah, ah, I'll take good care of me

[Chorus]
Take good care of me tonight
At home I'm so alone
I'm wishin' you were here
Baby, tonight my bed is cold
I'm wishin' you were near
'Cause I'm in a sexy mood
And only you can fill my needs
I'll lay here and take care of it 'til you come home to me

At home I'm so alone
I'm wishin' you were here
Baby, tonight my bed is cold
I'm wishin' you were near
'Cause I'm in a sexy mood
And only you can fill my needs
I'll lay here and take care of it 'til you come home to me

[Outro]
Ah, ah, take care of me
Ah, ah, fulfill my needs
Ah, ah, take care of me
Ah, ah, take care of me
Ah, ah, fulfill my needs
Ah, ah, whatever you can be
Ah, ah, I'll take care of me

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.
