Love Above The Ground Floor

Rickie's up on the rooftop

Overlooking the city, gonna kiss his cheek

She knows this, her mama can't stop

If it happens tonight, it's gonna taste so sweet

A cool breeze comes up from the river

She stands a breath away

The sounds of sweet soul music play

There's love above the ground floor

Rickie's on the roof tonight

Making love

Holding on to that boy so tight

Love above the ground floor

Rickie, leave the world below

Don't come down

And don't you ever let him go

Streetlights, flash of the neon

Every once in a while, he gets to see her face

Brown eyes, red lips say, "Come on, baby

Come a little bit closer, let me leave my trace"

Ooh, downtown, heartbeats are rising

Can't stop what's coming true

Tonight is dedicated toThere's love above the ground floor

Rickie's on the roof tonight

Making love

Holding on to that boy so tight

Love above the ground floor

Rickie, leave the world below

Don't come down

And don't you ever let him go

No one in the world would walk away from the one dream

That brings such happiness

The only word left to say is yes

Oh yes

There's love above the ground floor

Rickie's on the roof tonight

Making love

Holding on to that boy so tight

Love above the ground floor

Rickie, leave the world below (Rickie, leave the world below)

Don't come down (Don't come down)

And don't you ever let him go

Love above the ground floor

Rickie's on the roof tonight

Making love

Holding on to that boy so tight

Love above the ground floor (Yeah)

Rickie, leave the world below

Don't come down
