Love Above the Ground Floor

Ricky's up on the roof Overlooking the city Gonna kiss his cheek She knows this Her mama can't stop It'll happen tonight It'll taste so sweet A cool breeze comes up from the river She's just a breath away The sound of sweet soul music plays There's love above the ground floor Ricky's on the roof tonight Makin' love Holding onto that boy so tight Love above the ground floor Ricky leaves the world below Don't come down And don't you ever Let. Him. Go Street lights flashing and neon Every once in awhile He gets to see her face Brown eyes, red lips say, "C'mon, baby. Come a little bit closer. Let me leave my trace" Ooo - Ooo - Ooo Downtown, heartbeats are writhin' Can't stop what's comin' true Tonight is dedicated to Love above the ground floor Ricky's on the roof tonight Makin' love Holding onto that boy so tight Love above the ground floor Ricky leaves the world below Don't come down And don't you ever Let. Him. Go (Instrumental break) No one in the world would Walk away from the wond'ring That brings such happiness The only word left to say is: Yes! (Oh, Oh, yes.) There's love above the ground floor Ricky's on the roof tonight Makin' love Holding onto that boy so tight Love above the ground floor Ricky leaves the world below Don't come down And don't you ever Let. Him. Go [Repeats to FADE...]
