I know you mad. I can tell by the way you lookin' at me. But you ain't moved yet. Yeah... I know what these hands do to you. [Verse 1 | Soft Drums Enter | Conversational | Intimate] When I put my hand on the small of your back, You lean into me like you forgot you was mad. Wrap both arms around your waist from behind, You still fussin', but you don't tell me move this time. I rub your shoulders when you've had a long day, Run my hand down your arm while you tell me what you gotta say. Put my palm against your cheek, look you dead in your eyes, You try to hold that attitude, but I can see it start to die. Then I pull you to my chest, let you stay right there, Kiss you on your forehead, run my fingers through your hair. I ain't gotta say too much when I'm this close to you, 'Cause you already know what these hands can do. [HOOK | Simple | Repetitive | Stacked Background Vocals] When I touch you... (When I touch you...) When I touch you... (When I touch you...) You know what these hands do... (You know... you know...) When I touch you... When I touch you... Your mouth say you mad at me... But your body still wants my touch. (My touch...) (My touch...) Still wants my touch. [Verse 2 | Darker | More Sexual | Low Baritone | Beat Pulls Back] Now I ain't touchin' you the way I did before, My hand on your thigh while I pull you close. Slide both hands around your hips real slow, That look on your face tell me how far I can go. I kiss on your neck while my hands explore, You press against me like you want a little more. I know where to hold you, know where you like pressure, Know when to slow down and make you wait for the pleasure. Hands on your waist while you move against me, That attitude fading every second you feel me. Your breathing done changed, now you're holding me tight, And that look you giving me changed the whole damn night. You were just saying you ain't foolin' with me, Now you're pulling me closer like, "Boy, don't leave." Funny how quick that argument got hushed... Soon as you felt my touch. [HOOK | Bigger Stacks] When I touch you... (When I touch you...) When I touch you... (When I touch you...) You know what these hands do... (You know... you know...) When I touch you... When I touch you... Your mouth say you mad at me... But your body still wants my touch. (My touch...) (My touch...) Still wants my touch. [Bridge | Drums Drop | Rhodes + Bass | Intimate] Sometimes it's your back... Sometimes your waist... Sometimes I hold your face and just look at you. Sometimes you need these hands to tell you I'm here. And sometimes... You want 'em somewhere else. [Beat Drop] [FINAL HOOK | Repeat Twice | Heavy Vocal Stacks] When I touch you... (When I touch you...) When I touch you... (When I touch you...) You know what these hands do... (You know... you know...) When I touch you... When I touch you... Your mouth say you mad at me... But your body still wants my touch. (My touch...) (My touch...) Still wants my touch. [REPEAT] When I touch you... (When I touch you...) When I touch you... (When I touch you...) You know what these hands do... (You know what they do...) When I touch you... When I touch you... Your mouth say you mad at me... But your body still wants my touch. (My touch...) (My touch...) Still wants my touch. [Outro | Rhodes Only | Whispered] You can stay mad if you want to... Just don't come this close. 'Cause you know what happens... When I touch you.
