Darling what are you doing

When the sun goes down

There are things we could do

Why don't you come around

There's a party tonight

That you're invited to

It's a party that's just for me and you

Heartbeat to heartbeat

So close together

Let the moment

Carry us away

Turn the lights

Tonight The time is right

The perfect night

For a private affair

Close your eyes

Tune out the world outside

Hold me tight it's a private affair

Soft music playing on the stereo

And some rhythm

To take you where you want to go

I promise I won't answer

The telephone

You're with me darling

We're gonna be all along

Heartbeat to heartbeat

So close together

Let the moment

Carry us away

Turn the lights

Tonight The time is right

The perfect night

For a private affair

Close your eyes

Tune out the world outside

Hold me tight it's a private affair

Oh come to me

I can love you, you will see

I want to give you baby

All of need

It's a special occasion

A celebration

Let the moment carry us away

I wanna prove

I love the move in you

Perfect life, for a private affair

Close you eyes, darling, baby

Tune out the world outside

Hold me tight it's a private affair

We've got to world outside

We've got to the groove inside

We've got to move the head

'Cause it's a private affair

I don't wanna see you going away

My baby, yeah, hoo, hoo, private affair

You know love, I want you
