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
