When You Put Your Hands on Me Lyrics
[Intro]
When you put your hands on me
When you put your hands on me
[Verse 1]
I don't know about the travel of time
And I've never seen most of the world
I don't know, diving out of the sky
Or living like the diamonds of pearls
[Pre-Chorus]
See, I haven't danced to a musical tune
And I haven't noticed the flowers in bloom
I haven't smiled when alone in my room very much
Then we touched
[Chorus]
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel ready and I lose my self-control
When you put your hands on me
[Verse 2]
I don't know if a doll can unwind
Or how to make a person go
I don't know how to be what you like
And simply open up the depth of my soul
When you put your hands on me
When you put your hands on me
[Verse 1]
I don't know about the travel of time
And I've never seen most of the world
I don't know, diving out of the sky
Or living like the diamonds of pearls
[Pre-Chorus]
See, I haven't danced to a musical tune
And I haven't noticed the flowers in bloom
I haven't smiled when alone in my room very much
Then we touched
[Chorus]
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel ready and I lose my self-control
When you put your hands on me
[Verse 2]
I don't know if a doll can unwind
Or how to make a person go
I don't know how to be what you like
And simply open up the depth of my soul
[Pre-Chorus]
So I keep my wings and my eyes on the down
Ready for nothing but holding my ground
I haven't used a particular noun very much
Then we touched
[Chorus]
I just know, when you put your hands on me
(I just know when you put your hands on me)
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold (my body turns to gold)
I just know, when you put your hands on me
(You put your hands on me)
I feel ready and I lose my self-control (I lose self-control)
When you put your hands on me
[Bridge]
I won't notice or pay you no mind
Boy, I couldn't care less
What you do with your time
Your fingertips on my hips
Just move me like one of a kind
[Chorus]
When you put your hands on me
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold
(Put your hands on me, you put your hands on me)
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel ready and I lose my self-control
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel ready (I feel ready, baby) and I lose my self-control
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel ready and I lose my self-control
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold
So I keep my wings and my eyes on the down
Ready for nothing but holding my ground
I haven't used a particular noun very much
Then we touched
[Chorus]
I just know, when you put your hands on me
(I just know when you put your hands on me)
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold (my body turns to gold)
I just know, when you put your hands on me
(You put your hands on me)
I feel ready and I lose my self-control (I lose self-control)
When you put your hands on me
[Bridge]
I won't notice or pay you no mind
Boy, I couldn't care less
What you do with your time
Your fingertips on my hips
Just move me like one of a kind
[Chorus]
When you put your hands on me
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold
(Put your hands on me, you put your hands on me)
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel ready and I lose my self-control
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel ready (I feel ready, baby) and I lose my self-control
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel ready and I lose my self-control
I just know, when you put your hands on me
I feel sexy and my body turns to gold

What did Christina Aguilera say about "When You Put Your Hands on Me"?
Genius Answer
Co-writer Robin Thicke on how he came to be a part of creating the song:
With Christina, Ron Fair played us a demo when I was actually looking for a record deal. I didn’t really have the songs yet, but I went into a meeting and was looking for a new deal. And instead they pitched me Christina. And immediately my partner Pro Jay, who I’ve made all my music with for 25 years, we both were blown away by her voice. She came up to the studio, we did a couple songs, and we just all knew she was going to be a star. We just all knew.
