hot on the trail

Deniece Williams

On a mission to try and win your love
As I follow and watch from behind
Since I met you, I ve never left the case
Since I promised myself you d be mine
You call me friend, I see you in
Your every changing mood as you bend my ear
About the girls inside your world
And how they offer love that will trap you
I d like to kidnap you

Hot on the trail
Got my destination in sight
Hot on the trail
Not my imagination, it s right

On a mission, well, I oughta take you in
You know, stealing a heart is a crime
Undercover, that s always been my style
Cloak and dagger and bide my time
But now you re here, it s very clear
The time has come to throw all my props away
And let you know I love you so
And that we ll be together forever
You re mine to stay

Hot on the trail
Got my destination in sight
I m after your love
Hot on the trail
Not my imagination, it s right
Ay, ay, ay, ay, I m hot on the trail
Got my destination in sight
Cause I m after your love
Hot on the trail
Not my imagination, it s right

Sometimes we spy have to work in the dark
But the light s shining through
And I m taking the clues from my heart
Now love can start

Well, I m hot on the trail
Got my destination in sight
Cause I m after your love
Hot on the trail
Not my imagination, it s right
Ay, ay, ay, ay, I m hot on the trail
Yes, I am, baby
Got my destination in sight
Cause, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, I m
Hot on the trail
Not my imagination, it s right

(Hot on the trail)
I m hot on the trail, baby boy, yeah
I m after your love, I m hot
(Hot on the trail)
Not my imagination, it s right
(Hot on the trail)
Hot on the trail
Said, I m after your love
(Hot on the trail)
It s right
