What Does It Take

Isaac Hayes

[Verse 1]
The party's ended, the guests are gone
Just you and me alone
At this hour, where can you go
Won't you stay a few minutes more?
It's too early to go home
And too late to be alone
So please don't go away
What does it take to make you stay?
Hey, hey, hey hey hey

[Verse 2]
I've been watching you all night
(Watching you, just watching you)
I just couldn't let you out my sight (Ha, ha, ha, ha)
When you dance just took my breath
I couldn't hardly control myself
The look of love was in your eyes
I just couldn't let love pass me by
I'll do anything you say
What does it take to make you stay?
Please stay, hey hey hey hey hey

[Verse 3]
Lady, lovely lady
My heart is reaching out to you
Satisfy, and meet in me
As I satisfy your need in you
Have another glass of wine
I really wish you'd change your mind
My body is burning with desire (It's burning, it's burning)
Touch my lips and feel the fire (Ha, ha, ha, ha)
You got everything I need
So won't you spend the night with me?
So please don't go away
What does it take to make you stay?
Won't you stay, hey hey hey
Won't you stay

[Verse 4]
It means you love someone, girl
I need someone to love
Don't go, don't you don't you go (What does it take)
Stay, you let us boil (To make you stay, hey, hey)
Don't go, I need somebody's arm (What does it take)
Swing you sometime (To make you stay, hey, hey)
Don't go, come on, stay (What does it take)
Wriggling love, love, love, oh man (To make you stay, hey, hey)
Don't go, what will it take to make you say you love
(What does it take)
Can you stay (To make you stay, hey, hey)
You need love, too, I can tell by the way that you
(What does it take)
Don't stare (To make you stay, hey, hey)
(Whatever you need) I got it
(What does it take, whatever you want
To make you stay, hey, hey
Oh, whatever you need, what does it take, whatever you want
To make you stay, hey, hey
Oh, whatever you need, what does it take, whatever you want
To make you stay, hey, hey
Oh, whatever you need, what does it take, whatever you want
To make you stay, hey, hey)

[Outro]
(Oh, whatever you need, what does it take, whatever you want
To make you stay, hey, hey)
