I've loved you from a distance
A mighty long long time baby
I've secretly absorbed you
Mentally explored you
s**ually imagined what you'd be like baby
Late at night I've acted out the fantasy
Of what it would be like to hold you close to me
Dramatizing every move - it's scandalous
The things we'd like to do - just us
[Chorus:]
Stay awhile why don't you stay and play
And let me make - I've got to make -
I want to make a passion play
Play while - my darling stay awhile -
I'm gonna bust a move on you
I want to make - just let me make a passion play
Awhile - darling stay awhile -
you know I know just what to do
We'll do it so discreetly
And no one has to know - say yes oh please
Cause I have a deep affection
A bitter sweet collection
A pleasure chest of treasures that I've save for you
I've acted out each passion play they thrill me so
Sometimes I get so caught up that I can't let go
Dramatizing every move is paradise
The things we like to do is the fire and ice
[Chorus]
Play awhile ooh my darling stay awhile
I don't know what to do
I'm so in love with you
Stay awhile ooh my darling play awhile
Make a passion play - stay
Shake it on up - shake it on down - shake it on up
Shake it on up - shake it on down - shake it on up
A mighty long long time baby
I've secretly absorbed you
Mentally explored you
s**ually imagined what you'd be like baby
Late at night I've acted out the fantasy
Of what it would be like to hold you close to me
Dramatizing every move - it's scandalous
The things we'd like to do - just us
[Chorus:]
Stay awhile why don't you stay and play
And let me make - I've got to make -
I want to make a passion play
Play while - my darling stay awhile -
I'm gonna bust a move on you
I want to make - just let me make a passion play
Awhile - darling stay awhile -
you know I know just what to do
We'll do it so discreetly
And no one has to know - say yes oh please
Cause I have a deep affection
A bitter sweet collection
A pleasure chest of treasures that I've save for you
I've acted out each passion play they thrill me so
Sometimes I get so caught up that I can't let go
Dramatizing every move is paradise
The things we like to do is the fire and ice
[Chorus]
Play awhile ooh my darling stay awhile
I don't know what to do
I'm so in love with you
Stay awhile ooh my darling play awhile
Make a passion play - stay
Shake it on up - shake it on down - shake it on up
Shake it on up - shake it on down - shake it on up
