Lights down low, the candles flickering light
Got the silk sheets on, I'm doing things right
Walked across the room, feeling like the man
Till I tripped on the rug, and I ruined the plan
Oh
You're the sweetest thing, got me twisted in knots
Thinking I'm a player, but I'm losing the plot
Trying to be smooth, smooth
Trying to keep my cool
But for your love, girl, I'm playing the fool
Yeah, I'm playing the fool
Tried to pour the wine, tried to pour the wine
But I missed the glass, now there's merlot stains
Now there's merlot stains from a 94 stash
You just look at me and you start to laugh
And I forget the sweat, I forget the half of it
Uh-huh, yeah
I don't need no ice, no diamonds on my hand
Just a chance to show you that I'm more than just a man
Even if I stumble, even if I fall
I'll be the one to answer, I'll be the one to call
I'll be the one to call
You're the sweetest thing, got me twisted in knots
Thinking I'm a player, but I'm losing the plot
Trying to be smooth, smooth
Trying to keep my cool
But for your love, girl, I'm playing the fool
Yeah, I'm playing the fool
Yeah, I'm playing the fool
Yeah, I'm playing the fool
Yeah, I'm playing the fool
Just a fool for you
I'm all right
It didn't hurt
Ooh
