JERMAINE JACKSON - LET'S GET SERIOUS LYRICS

 

Close my eyes and I see your face at night

Toss and turn, fall to sleep holding my pillow tight

All the time I think of you

You're with me no matter what I do

 

Walk around with a smile upon my face

In my mind you have taken up permanent space

I am feeling what I can't explain

And if what you're feeling is the same

 

Let's get serious

Let's get serious

Let's get serious

And fall in love

 

Let's get serious

Let's get serious

Let's get serious

And fall in love

 

S E R I O U S, baby

Let's get serious

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

In your arms is the place I want to be

With my love in you and your love inside of me

Longing for each other just ain't fair

When we've got so much love we want to share

 

Let's get serious

Let's get serious

Let's get serious

And fall in love

 

Let's get serious

Let's get serious

Let's get serious

And fall in love

 

Let's get serious

Let's get serious

Let's get serious
