Hello my biological name is Mario Smith. My professional/stage name is “Rio”. I was born and raised in the small town of Ripley, Tennessee. I come from a true lineage of ‘Soul and Gospel’ singers. As an aspiring vocalist, singer and student of the game, some of my greatest influences range from the likes of retro artists: Sam Cook, Johnny Taylor and Ronald Isley to such current artists as: Ginuwine, and Dru Hill. Blessed with a strong and powerful vocal, I also possess the talented ability to… Continue

Get the beat off his page and do a remake of the track for me. I think it would sound wonderful with your voice over it. The lyrics are:
VI
I've been all day thinking...about me and you
Contemplating all the things we'll do
It's been a long time waiting...and now it's time
For us to put in motion...what's been on our minds
No need to rush cause we have all night girl
We waited this long, what's few minutes more

Chorus
I've been waiting...patiently
For this moment for you...to be here with me
Let me hold you...in my arms tonight
When we make love I'll treat your body right...right

VII
I feel your body tremble...as I gently stroke your thigh
I kiss you softly as I look into your eyes
I feel your heartbeat echo...from your chest to mine
I can't help thinking in a minute you'll be mine
You whisper something special when our eyes meet
You say stop playing I need you inside of me

Chorus
I've been waiting...patiently
For this moment for you...to be here with me
Let me hold you...in my arms tonight
When we make love I'll treat your body right...right
