[00:19.40]I seen her in the subway, on my way to Brooklyn
[00:22.90]Hello, good lookin', is this seat tooken?
[00:24.29]On the A-train, picking at her brain
[00:26.48]I couldn't get her number, I couldn't get her name
[00:29.10](I'm curious) I said I still like your style of fashion
[00:31.50]But I hate your high sadity attitude with a passion
[00:33.68]Is it because brothers like to hawk a lot?
[00:36.13]Is it because you're shy'n don't talk a lot?
[00:38.13]She turned away, no play, I said okay
[00:40.59]You don't really look good, I hope you have a bad day
[00:43.18]Sat back, relaxed though the ride was tight
[00:45.38]I was thinking of the rhymes I wrote last night
[00:47.99]Next stop was mine, a familiar scene
[00:50.13]I was meeting my friend, Killer Ben in Fort Greene
[00:52.65]Where the girls are real, they tell ya how they feel
[00:55.80]If you're soft, you're soft, or if you're hard like steel
[00:57.59]See I don't bend and I won't rust
[00:59.91]And I don't break and I won't bust
[01:02.20]Stomped up the street and did I hear a treat?
[01:04.62]Hard high heels tappin' on the concrete
[01:06.84]I took a peek, it was the girl from the train behind me
[01:09.33]Did she live in the area, was she trying to find me?
[01:11.97]Hmm, I didn't wanna play myself out
[01:14.13]I played it off, stopped and I bought a Guinness Stout
[01:16.69]Now was she shy, she didn't walk by
[01:19.20]She came in the store then she even said 'hi'
[01:21.31]Curiosity, at a high velocity
[01:23.62]Maybe possibly she had the hots for me
[01:25.90]I said, "if we're playing games then we're gonna play mine
[01:28.73]I'm a lay the rules cause it ain't much time
[01:30.88]If you hide your feelings, and they hard to find
[01:33.10]I wanna know what's on your mind"
[01:35.41][Hook]
[01:45.50]About a week went by and I called her, "Hello"
[01:47.73]I said yo, can I speak to, um, she said no
[01:49.76]Hey yo, I know I didn't call, I didn't wanna stress you
[01:52.27]Go out my way to impress you, press to undress you
[01:54.87]See I wanna get to know you so I can show you
[01:57.30]What a strong relationship can grow to
[01:59.58]But you gotta trust me and you're gonna love me

[02:05.45]When my mental, massage ya temple
[02:07.44]Telephone's hot from the vibes that I sent you
[02:09.67]Now tell me your inner thoughts and deepest emotions
[02:12.80]Next you see ecstacy's explosions
[02:14.41]Now I'm coming to see you to spend some time

[02:18.86]And if you hide your feelings and they hard to find

[02:23.38][Hook]
[02:31.72]I wanna know what's on your mind
[02:42.57]Now it's been months and it's smooth and lovely
[02:44.99]I'm in your head so you'll be thinking of me
[02:47.13]So we met in Queens and went to Valley Streams
[02:49.58]And, uh, couldn't remember the movie we just seen

[03:11.63]You smile, you said you never know what the day will bring
[03:14.30]It's always a new song to sing
[03:16.25]The next day I went back to the her rest
[03:18.39]Knocked on the door, intentions: finesse
[03:20.94]She let me in and had nothing but a negligee on
[03:23.74]Smelling like Liz Claiborne
[03:25.38]I sat down and got comfortable and watched the Huxtables
[03:28.00]She sat next to me and said what's up wit you
[03:30.47]I got the feeling for sexual healing
[03:32.77]A mental healing; how you feeling
[03:35.70]She caught the effect and said she feel the same
[03:37.30]Could you massage my intellect and stop the pain
[03:39.77]Desire's yearning, the fire's burning
[03:42.50]You hot cause it's a lot you're learning
[03:44.50]Now I'm ready to explore you inner world
