Take Me Seriously

Boy, you've been chasing me a while.
Yeah, you're giving me the eye.
I keep catching your little smile,
But I guess you must be shy.

Go ahead and approach me.
You know you can pull up that chair.
I'm getting worked up over here.
Can't you do more than stare?

Why don't you just take me-
Seriously, Baby.
I'm not joking around;
I'm not playing games.
Just c'mon and take me-
Seriously, Baby!

Just a simple hello,
And I'm lost in your voice.
I think I'm already yours-
Did I ever have a choice?

You say you like my eyes.
Can't you see what they're saying to you?
I guess you can't take a hint,
So, I'll give you an obvious clue.

Why don't you just take me-
Seriously, Baby.
I'm not joking around;
I'm not playing games.
Just c'mon and take me-
Seriously, Baby!

Now on the dance floor,
You move so close to me.
I get lost in your touch-
Your body fits so perfectly.

Don't hold back-
I want what you've got.
Can't you feel the flame?
Its making me so hot.

Why don't you just take me-
Seriously, Baby.
I'm not joking around;
I'm not playing games.
Just c'mon and take me-
Seriously, Baby!
