The Roof (Back In Time) [Full Crew Radio Edit No Rap]

It wasn't raining yet (yet)
But it was definitely (it was definitely)
A little misty on that warm November night
And my heart was pounding (pounding)
My inner voice resounding
Begging me to turn away
But I just had to see your face to feel alive

And then you casually walked into the room
And I was twisted in the web of my desire for you
My apprehension blew away
I only wanted you to taste my sadness
As you kissed me in the dark

Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night

And so we finished the Moët
And started feeling liberated
And I surrendered as you took me
In your arms (you took me in your arms)
I was so caught up in the moment
I couldn't bear to let you go yet
So I threw caution to the wind
And started listening to my longing heart

And then you softly pressed your lips to mine
And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed
For such a long time (and I was lifted)
And for a while I forgot the sorrow and pain
And melted with you as we stood there in the rain

Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me (envision you caressing me)
And go back in time
To relieve the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me
And go back in time
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night

Last night I dreamed that
I whispered the words I love you
And touched you so very subtly
As we were kissing goodbye

(Every time)
Every time I feel the need
I envision you caressing me (envision you caressing me)
And go back in time (I go back in time)
To relive the splendor of you and I
On the rooftop that rainy night (on the roof that rainy night)
Every time I feel the need (when I feel the need)
I envision you caressing me (I envision you over and over and over again)
And go back in time
To relive the splendor of you and I (it was, oh, so sweet you and I)
