Tonight
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When you smiled at me
And I saw your eyes
All I ever wanted to be
Was in your arms tonight
You looked too young to know about romance
(Oh, yes you did)
But when you smiled I had to take a chance
I had to take a chance and be with you tonight
I'll be with you tonight
Tonight, you'll love me too, tonight
Woh, baby, tonight
I'll make love to you
(Woh, tonight!)
Bop-om-doo-don o-mop shoop
(Woh, tonight!)
You're gonna love me, too!
Tonight!
I don't know myself
If it's wrong or right
All I know is what I can feel
So be my love tonight
You looked too young to know about romance
(Oh, yes you did)
But when you smiled I had to take a chance
I had to take a chance and be with you tonight
I'll be with you tonight
Tonight, you'll love me too, tonight
Woh, baby, tonight
I'll make love to you
(Woh, tonight!)
Bop-om-doo-don o-mop shoop
(Woh, tonight!)
(Oh, tonight!)
Won't cha let me sleep with you, baby
(Oh, tonight!)
I just wanna make you feel good inside, baby
(Oh, tonight!)
Let me feel the love that's in you
(Oh, tonight!)
Come on, come on
Come on and let me come on, baby
