[Lyric] Dear Lover Original (LL Cool J)

I don't put my business in the streets (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets
(You know what I'm sayin'? Uh)
Dear Lover
I don't put my business in the streets
(Ayo, soon we start bouncin' baby, word up)
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets
Dear Lover
I don't put my business in the streets (Uh, yeah)
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets (Word up kid)
Dear Lover
I don't put my business in the streets (Check this out ladies)
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets

I come to your door
Dipped ready for war
Lay you on the floor
Kiss you down by law
Home calls are short
No need to take long
A private strip tease
Lip syncin' a love song
It's all I need to get a private love affair
It the effect mode
It'll be a rocky road
To hold aside
The things we tried
The hugs, the tugs
The piggyback rides
Late night spent
Then I pull the towel out the closet
When the vanilla hits the chocolate
Dear Lover
I don't put my business in the streets
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets
Dear Lover
I don't put my business in the streets
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets

Who's the masked man
With the flowers in his hand?
The white on white drop top
The system pumpin' slow jams
The neighbours be peekin' through the shades
'Cause when we coolin' in the projects
I'm playin' with your braids
Tinted windows
Night time and chrome rims
Here's the room key
Girl you can stick it in, mmm
Incense is lit
Hold it in your hand while I take another hit
It's a secret, undercover
Down low, quiet side
Not that I'm ashamed
I'm just givin' you a private ride
I want you totally comfortable with this
And if it hurts I'mma give it a kiss
Dear Lover
I don't put my business in the streets
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets
Dear Lover
I don't put my business in the streets
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets
Uh

Cookies and cream
Make me fiend for mo'
Three in the mornin'
Throwin' pebbles at your window
The projects is wild as hell
The ghetto ain't mellow
But girlfriend that's where we dwell
So I'm up at your rest
While your mama's asleep
With my hand on your mouth
So we can keep it discreet
We in the bathroom, kitchen
In front of your mama's door
If the furniture squeaks
We can take it to the floor
Oh damn, look at how I ruined the carpet
You're peeps asleep
Crack a window and spark it
Keep it down low
I love it like that boo
I'd never disrespect you
I wanna hold you tight
With half my might
Whisper in your ear
Everything will be alright
Put your head on my chest and lounge girl
I rock you to sleep
When you fall, peace I'm out
Dear Lover
I don't put my business in the streets
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets
Dear Lover
I don't put my business in the streets
When we make love, we're down low in the sheets
Uh
