Crucial (Alternate Lyrics)

My baby let me touch her on Thursday night
Her scent stayed with me until Friday noon
I couldn't wash my body for fear of losing
The budding heart of my sweet baby's perfume

I ain't saying you're better, baby
I ain't saying you're not
I ain't saying anything until I've got
Our bodies entwined, that's when you'll be mine
For always and for all time

[Chorus]
Crucial: baby, our love has got to be
Crucial: everything from A to Z
Crucial: you've got to show me everything, everything, everything

Is that Old Man River knocking at your door
Saying that we got to let more than our feelings show?
Baby, tonight don't hold nothing back, I know you've got some more
I will give you mine if you give me yours

Everything that you learned in school
Baby, I need to know
Everything that your Mama taught you
Ooh, you got to tell me so
Baby, I won't stop
Until you let me cop
Your body is a river
And I want every drop

[Chorus]
Crucial: baby, our love has got to be
Crucial: every little thing from A to Z
Crucial: you have got to show me everything, everything, everything
