You know, you
You make me feel so good inside
I've always wanted a girl just like you
Such a P-Y-T
Pretty young thing, ooh

Where did you come from, lady?
And, ooh, won't you take me there
Right away, won't you, baby?
Tendoroni you've got to be
Spark my nature, sugar, fly with me
Don't you know now is the perfect time
We can make it right, hit the city lights
Then tonight, ease the lovin' pain
Let me take you to the max

I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I'll take you there, girl (ooh-ooh)

I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I'll take you there

(Anywhere you want to go) yes I will, ooh

Nothin' can stop this burnin' desire to be with you
Gotta get to you, baby
Won't you come, it's emergency
Cool my fire yearnin'
Honey, come set me free
Don't you know now is the perfect time?
We can dim the lights just to make it right
In the night, hit the lovin' spot
I'll give you all that I've got

I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I'll take you there
Yes, I will, yes, I will

I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I'll take you there
Yes, I will

Pretty young things, repeat after me
Sing "na-na-na" (na-na-na)
"Na-na-na-na" (na-na-na-na)
Sing "na-na-na" (na-na-na)
"Na-na-na-na-na" (na-na-na-na-na)
Oh, take you there, take you there

I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I'll take you there
Take you there, take you there

I want to love you (P.Y.T.)
Pretty young thing
You need some lovin' (T.L.C.)
Tender love and care
And I'll take you there, take you there

Hoo-ooh (I want to love, you P.Y.T., P.Y.T.)
Oh, baby (I want to give, you T.L.C., T.L.C.)
Oh, baby
Hold on, ooh
You know I think you're really, really nice (I want to love, you P.Y.T., P.Y.T.)
You and I could uh, you know, just get together (I want to give, you T.L.C., T.L.C.)
You're such a P.Y.T. to me, pretty young thing
Oh, baby, oh, baby, hold on
I want to love, you P.Y.T. (P.Y.T., oh, baby)
I want to give, you T.L.C. (T.L.C.)

    Well hell Ladyinp, (not that I don't agree with you or anything-It annoys the shit out of me too)....But you just contradicted yourself and made a hypocrite of yourself in that last comment. I mean, first you say 'just comment on the song, not on the personal life of Michael, then went right on ahead and did exactly what you told everybody else not to do...Then you say 'stop defending him now that he's dead...Well would you prefer that everybody just CONTINUED to call him a child-molesting creep??

    I saw it how you just said at first too- becuase I've spent a good part of my life defending from the same people who are now worshipping him in his death-but now I see that it is better he gets the credit he always deserved late than never at all..."Better late than never" as they say

    Songmeanings is fantastic btw!! A friend of mine introduced me to it last week :)

    Oh, and now to the song...It's embarrassing because this song is sorta cheesy (in a good way) but I LOVE THIS SONG...It's a song that can always make me happy...or at least it always used to...Now when I listen to it I feel sad thinking of poor MJ :(
