Secret Lover
[Intro: Ronald Isley]
La da da da da la da da
Oh yeah
La da da da da la da da
Oh, yeah yeah
Oh

[Verse 1: Ronald Isley + (Avant)]
I've been waiting for you, girl
So much on my mind I wanna do, I wanna do
(Like) Lay you down
(And like) Mess around
(Like) All night long
Girl, let's get it on

[Chorus: Avant + (Ronald Isley)]
My secret lover (Secret lover)
My mystery girl (Mystery girl)
I wanna play hide and seek (I wanna play)
Baby, let's creep between the sheets tonight
(In between the sheets tonight)
My secret lover (Ah girl)
My mystery girl (Mystery girl)
I wanna play hide and seek (I wanna play)
Baby, let's creep between the sheets tonight
[Verse 2: Ronald Isley]
My door is open wide, let me come inside
Shadows fill the room from the candle lights
See our bodies moving to the groove, yeah
So girl let's get it on, ain't no time to lose

[Pre-Chorus: Avant]
You got me on cloud nine
And I don't wanna come down
Your lovin' soothes my soul
And I love it when you come around

[Chorus: Avant + (Ronald Isley)]
My secret lover
My mystery girl (You're my mystery girl)
I wanna play hide and seek (Hide and seek)
Baby, let's creep between the sheets tonight (Ah baby)
My secret lover (Lover)
My mystery girl (Mystery girl)
I wanna play hide and seek (Hide and seek)
Baby, let's creep between the sheets tonight

[Guitar solo]

[Bridge: Ronald Isley]
Ah baby (See our bodies, see our bodies, see our bodies)
My mystery girl (See our bodies, see our bodies, see our bodies)
You're my secret lover
[Verse 3: Ronald Isley + (Avant)]
This meal is on my plate
I can't wait to taste, taste you girl
Good lovin' going down all around this place
(Like) Upstairs
(And like) Down there
(Like) Everywhere
Woman, I don't care

[Chorus: Avant + (Ronald Isley)]
My secret lover
My mystery girl (Oh yeah)
I wanna play hide and seek
Baby, let's creep between the sheets tonight
My secret lover
My mystery girl (I wanna play, babe)
I wanna play hide and seek
Baby, let's creep between the sheets tonight

[Bridge: Avant]
As the wind blows, no one knows
'Bout the hiding place on my porch
Your body's cold, let me step to you
And rub you down nice and slow
Nothing but the water
And opportunity for you and me
So baby girl just ride my wave
Until the next day
[Outro: Ronald Isley + (Avant)]
Can't you feel me, babe; oh baby
(My secret lover)
Can't you feel me, baby? I love you, girl; la da da da da da
(My secret lover)
My mystery girl
(My secret lover)
You're my secret lover
(My secret lover)
