i'll let you slide

Singer:luther vandross

back to back and side to side

there's only music on my mind

nothing to worry about but the beat

i wanted you to come and dance with me

but you wanted to stay home and watch tv

ahhh

but when i got there to my surprise

there was another guy looking into your eyes

i don't want

don't want us to fuss and fight

from right now 'til tomorrow night

so if you promise to love only me and be by my side

i'll let you slide

without a doubt tonight is the night

that we gon' really roll when the time is right

and we're gonna carry it into the dawn

oh

but where are you

where can you be

i've been waiting

it seems an eternity

i took our favorite song from the record stack

it was hey

jimmy mack

when are you coming back

well

i'm so disappointed you're gone tonight

'cause your love is the spice of my life

but if you hurry back in the mornin'

then alright

i'll let you slide tonight

up and down

pacing round

walking in my sleep

'cause you've got a promise to keep

you've got to come back

and love

love

love

love

love me right

and

huh

i'll let you slide tonight

i can't wait til tomorrow

baby

can't you come over tonight

i can't get to sleep

my baby

come and rock my cradle left to right

i tossed and turned and called you up

but there wasn't anybody home

it makes me sad

i need you bad

but i guess i'm just gonna have to wait until tomorrow comes

slide

i knew it

i knew it

how could you do it

slide

it's alright

i'll let you slide tonight

i hired me a private eye

to ceck up on your cool little alibis

and what he discovered was woeful to me

baby

if you intend to stay with me

then you can't see the guys that i know you see

come on

let's ake up and promise to start anew

let's take the morning off

i've got some plans for you

making love by the moon can be mitghty fine

but when the sun rises

so do i

so if you rock it to me in the mornnig

then alright

i'll let you slide tonight

really missed you today

i was on the run

so wake me up when the morning comes

i think i'll dance to some music and groove on the party light

and let you slide tonight

get up

oooh

let's love baby

if you do it nice in the mornin'

then alright

i'll let you slide tonight

get up

ooh

let's love baby

if we do it twice in the mornin'
