Lyrics
Tell me why
Why must we wait until tonight?
Tell me why
Why must we wait until tonight?
You're gonna take a little time
Gonna drink me like a fine wine
Write the book of love line by line
But I wanna play with you right now
Go all the way with you, baby
And show you how
'Cause my body just can't say no
And my fingers just won't let go
Tell me why, lady
Why must we wait until tonight? Oh, yeah
Oh, tell me why
Why when I've waited all my life?
You're touching me, I'm touching you
What should I do now?
Tell me why
Why must we wait till tonight?
You like to take it real slow
Show me every little move you know
Take a little love and watch it grow
But I wanna lay with you darling, right now
Make love all day with you, baby
And show you how
Take my body don't take my time
Take your lips and make them mine
Oh, tell me why lady
Why must we wait until tonight? Oh, yeah
Just tell me why
Why when I've waited all my life
You're touching me, I'm touching you
What should I do now?
Tell me why, oh yeah
Why must we wait 'til tonight?
Oh, do you wanna
Come, come, come, come
Because my body just can't say no
And my fingers just won't let go
Baby, tell me why
Why must we wait until tonight?
Tell me baby, yeah
You tell me why
Why when I've waited all my life?
But you know I did
Come on, tell me why
Why must we wait until tonight?
Come, come
Oh, tell me why
