I just spent the last 5 minutes listening to that intro on repeat. OMG how do your fingers do that? You are from another planet, sir!

@MrJasonRBrown: did you borrow that opening pattern from Walter Bishop's "Study in Fourths?" it sounds really similar to what you do all over this piece. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LgE6M-ZCbQ

Love me some Billy Porter! One of my favorite JRB works!

What is up with the piano at the intro, it sounds like a barely tuned upright.  But, man, it's interesting to see an early version of this song. :)

Now I know where they go the inspiration for the Baywatch theme...

who do you run to
when you're caught in the middle
this could be simple
but baby you love a riddle 

bring me in
i'll never let you down
cuz when you're lying there
my body makes a sound 

i wanna love you with the lights on
i wanna love you after dawn
i wanna tell you that my body bends to hide it 
but my heart it can't deny 
i wanna love you with the lights on 
i wanna love you 

can't try to forget you
cuz you're all I think of
it's not an illusion 
we just get distracted 

the sun is burnin
wants to see us dance
i'm running out of patience
can we take this chance

i wanna love you with the lights on
i wanna love you after dawn
i wanna tell you that my body bends to hide it 
but my heart it can't deny 
i wanna love you with the lights on 
i wanna love you

love you with the lights on
