I'd Like To

Lying here with you reminds me of those days

Me and Candice waking up to a heat wave

Mother's in the garden inviting everyone

Oh, we'd cut up our old jeans and go outside

Neighbor's always smiling with a baby on her knee

Mia's sat on the front step getting her hair combed out in grease

Music, the bass boomin', oh, it's from the car parked in the street

Got that new song on repeat, oh, oh

(I'd, I'd) Like to put my fingers on you

(I'd, I'd) like to paint a picture for you

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from

I'd just like to make you see that

I desire simple things

Growing up, we didn't have a lot of money

Used to spend our summer having parties on the drive

Plastic cups for rum and punch, eating chicken that's hot and sweet

All the women discussing what love is like, you know the way I mean

And I'm just sitting, watching, hoping the boys will call for me

Got that new song on repeat, oh, yeah

(I'd, I'd) Like to put my fingers on you

(I'd, I'd) like to paint a picture for you

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from

I'd just like to make you see that

I desire simple things

Maybe then, now and then, I could want somebody

Delicate, intimate, used to dream of someone to love

Now you come, and you go right by me

I know I'm in love

(I'd, I'd) like to put my fingers on you

(I'd, I'd) like to paint a picture for you

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from

I'm just tryin' to make you see that

I desire simple things

(I'd, I'd) like to put my fingers on you

(I'd, I'd) like to paint a picture for you

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from

I'd just like to make you see that

I desire simple things

Don't you know, baby?

Don't you know I'd like to?
