[Verse 1]
If this ain’t perfect timing, it must be telepathy
I was just anticipating, that you'd be calling me
And I'd be getting closer, as simple as jumping in the ride (Closer)
And approaching your block (Closer)
When my key hits the lock and I'm in (Closer)
So it won't be long now until we meet again

[Chorus]
'Til our palms are sweating hand in hand
'Til we're hot as whoa, need a ceiling fan, yeah (It won't be long now)
Oh, 'til we challenge time and try to meet the sun
Until you recognize that I'm your only one
Until we make a baby girl or a son (It won't be long now)
Won't be long now

[Verse 2]
I'll take my tongue to wake you
It might feel like a wet dream to you
And on my way approaching (Oh, oh), I'll think of new things we can do
(With oils, and fruits, and chocolates, I'm getting closer)
In case you don't hear me I'ma say it one more time (Closer)
As sure as my name is Raheem, yeah (Closer)
Oh, on my life, on the red, black, and green (Closer)
Oh, I swear it won't be long now, baby, 'til we meet again
[Chorus]
'Til our palms are sweating hand in hand
'Til we're hot as whoa, need a ceiling fan (It won't be long now)
Oh, oh, oh, 'til we challenge time and try to meet the sun
Until you recognize why I'm your only one
'Til we make a baby girl or a beautiful son (It won't be long now)
Oh, oh, oh, it won't be long, baby, 'til we meet again
'Til we're sweating hand in hand
'Til we're hot as whoa and need a ceiling fan, ooh (It won't be long now)
Won't be long 'til we challenge time and try to meet the sun
Until you clinch my back and what's done is done
Until I plant the seed and I feel you cum (It won't be long now)
Oh, oh, oh, it won't be long now

[Bridge]
And you'll feel the earth, aligning and shifting (Aligning and shifting)
While I am giving (While I am giving) you my all (You, you my all)
I wanna take you to a place (Take my hand, let's go)
Where the water never runs dry and beauty never dies
(Yeah, beauty never dies) Yeah (No)
Time flies when we make love (So, baby, I can't wait)
Baby, 'til we meet again

[Chorus]
'Til our palms are sweating hand in hand
'Til we're hot as whoa, need a ceiling fan, yeah (It won't be long now)
It won't be, won't be, won't be, no
'Til we challenge time and try to meet the sun
Until you recognize why I'm the only one
'Til we make a girl or a baby son, oh, oh, oh (It won't be long now)
It won't be long now
[Outro]
It won't be long
It won't be long (Won't be long)
It won't be long now
Yeah, won't be long now
It won't be long now
No (It won't be long now)
