Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss, goodnight, baby?
Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss, goodnight, baby?
Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss, goodnight, baby?
Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss, goodnight, baby?
Lately, I've been thinking something's going wrong
'Cause you got an attitude
And you're not in the mood like you used to
Girl, I can feel it when I hold you in my arms
The feeling is not the same
Can I be the one to blame?
I don't wanna lose your love, hmm
I don't wanna say bye-bye, oh no no
True love is so hard to find
And it's right between your lips and mine, and mine
Before I let go
(Before I let you go away)
Can I get a kiss?
(Can I get a kiss, goodnight?)
Baby before you go, can I get a kiss goodnight?
(Before I let you go away)
Oooh baby
(Can I get a kiss, goodnight?)
Turn the lights down low
Let's take it nice and slow
My mission is to keep you mine
Don't want this to be the last time
We make sweet love baby
I know you feel it, too
It's bigger than the both of us
There's one thing I'm so certain of
I don't wanna lose your love (don't wanna lose ya)
I don't wanna say bye-bye (don't wanna lose ya)
It's always the little things
I remember and I can't just let it slip away
Slip away
Before
(Before I let you go away)
Baby I wanna know, I wanna know
(Can I get a kiss, goodnight?)
Before I go, I go, I go away
(Before I let you go away)
I just gotta know... Can I have?
(Can I get a kiss, goodnight?)
Teddy, won't you play the music for me
Teddy, won't you play Backstreet say? (don't wanna lose ya)
Baby, I get so lonely sometimes, I (don't wanna lose ya)
Baby, my heart is broken sometimes
I need you right now, I don't (don't wanna lose ya)
I can't let you slip away, slip away
Before I let go
(Before I let you go away
Can I get a kiss, goodnight?)
I don't see it being a problem
If I just get one little bitty kiss baby
(Before I let you go away)
I just can't let you get away
(Can I get a kiss, goodnight?)
Oh yeah, before I let you go
(Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss, goodnight, baby?)
Lord, have mercy
See I wanna know
(Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss, goodnight, baby?)
I gotta have one kiss goodnight
(Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss, goodnight, baby?)
Don't say bye-bye
(Before I let you go, before I let you go
Can I get a kiss, goodnight, baby?)
I don't want lose your sweet love
So don't say goodbye, say goodnight
