Love Thing
Tina Turner · Simply The Best
Saw you there, so confused
I knew that I could make my move now
Treading softly, I walked over you
We talked about this thing called love
Saw your eyes open wide
And I knew your heart was in it
Let me take you there
Let me take you there tonight
Get on board, get on my love thing
Gonna drive you wild
I wanna show you, I wanna hear you sing
Baby we got a love thing, right now
Close your eyes, follow me
I'll show you a world you've never been to
Take a ride in my love machine
And I won't do anything you can't get into
What I've got is what you need
And you won't do a thing about it
Let me take you there
Let me take you there tonight
Get on board, get on my love thing
Gonna drive you wild
I wanna show you, I wanna hear you sing
Baby we got a love thing, right now
I never want you to go
I alaways want you to stay
So come on baby, come on now
I knew that I could make my move now
Treading softly, I walked over you
We talked about this thing called love
Saw your eyes open wide
And I knew your heart was in it
Let me take you there
Let me take you there tonight
Get on board, get on my love thing
Gonna drive you wild
I wanna show you, I wanna hear you sing
Baby we got a love thing, right now
Close your eyes, follow me
I'll show you a world you've never been to
Take a ride in my love machine
And I won't do anything you can't get into
What I've got is what you need
And you won't do a thing about it
Let me take you there
Let me take you there tonight
Get on board, get on my love thing
Gonna drive you wild
I wanna show you, I wanna hear you sing
Baby we got a love thing, right now
I never want you to go
I alaways want you to stay
So come on baby, come on now
