Babydoll Lyrics

Yeah, oh baby, oh
It's two eleven and I'm stressing
Watching T.V in my hotel suite
I check my service every second
At two ten you still hadn't called me (no, no, no, no)

So I'm gonna leave my cell phone
Turned on in my purse by the bed
And before I fall asleep
I guess I'll just check my machine (go check it one more time)
Again and again because I'm
Obsessing on you

I want to be your babydoll (I just want to be your)
Wrap me up nice and tight (wrap me up nice and tight)
Love me through the night
Come lay me down
Enfold me in your arms
Cover me with velvet kisses
Rock me on and on
And whisper softly to me
You want to be my babydoll

Oh yeah, zoning out thinking about
You and me between the sheets (oh)
I want to get intimate
But you're not within my reach (no, no, no, no)

So I'll have a little more wine
And I'll try to drink you
Out of my head (try try, try, try)
And I'll lay awake awhile
'Til I'm high enough I can
Forget all about you until
I wake up again

I want to be your babydoll (baby)
Wrap me up nice and tight (wrap me up nice and tight)
Love me all through the night
Come lay me down
Enfold me in your arms
Cover me with velvet kisses
Rock me on and on
And whisper softly to me
You want to be my babydoll
My babydoll

Slipping into dreams (slipping into dreams)
I feel my love surround you
Ny subconscious seems
To weave itself around you

Do you care for me
Beyond idolization
Tell me how you feel
But don't keep me at bay

'Cause I won't be waiting long

I want to be your babydoll
Wrap me up nice and tight (so tight baby)
Love me all through the night (all through the night)
Come lay me down
Enfold me in your arms
Cover me with velvet kisses
Rock me on and on
And whisper softly to me

You want to be my babydoll

I want to be your babydoll
Wrap me up nice and tight
Love me through the night
Come lay me down
Enfold me in your arms
Cover me with velvet kisses
Rock me on and on
And whisper softly to me
You want to be my babydoll
Huh, can rock me on and on and on, oh
I want to be your babydoll (do, do, do, do, ya)
I want to be your babydoll
I want to be your babydoll
I want to be your babydoll
