Every night before I lay
If you wasn't laying beside me
Then I would pray to
See your face the very next day
Cause you drive me crazy
Every night before I lay
If you wasn't laying beside me
Then I would pray to
See your face the very next day
Cause you are my baby
(CeCe)
Won't you listen now
Your eyes, your style
Your moves, your smile
Oooh you got me open for a while
I can explain what you do to me
Boy you're drivin' me insane
Can you recall the spell you put me under
Didn't have time to wonder
Where do we go from here?
That's the only thing that I fear
And I love you, boy
Every night before I lay
If you wasn't laying beside me
Then I would pray to
See your face the very next day
Cause you drive me crazy
Every night before I lay
If you wasn't laying beside me
Then I would pray to
See your face the very next day
Cause you are my baby
(JoJo)
You've got me goin'
In circles and around and 'round
But I won't give up on you, no
Because you're what makes me happy
No no no no I'll never
Give up on you, I'll treasure
Every little thing that you do
Girl I really love you
Every night before I lay
If you wasn't laying beside me
Then I would pray to
See your face the very next day
Cause you drive me crazy
Every night before I lay
If you wasn't laying beside me
Then I would pray to
See your face the very next day
Cause you are my baby
You've got me open on your love
Can't live without you
And you're all I'm dreamin' of
And yes it's only you
That my heart beats for
It's your love
And you're everything that I need
And ever wanted
