Gonna Be a Beautiful Night (feat. Carlitta Durand)

[Chorus: Phonte] And I can tell by the look in your eyes It's gonna be a beautiful night I said, it's gonna be a beautiful night Baby doll, baby doll And I can tell by the way that you're looking at me It's gonna be a beautiful night I said, it's gonna be a beautiful night Baby doll, baby doll [Phonte] All of my life I've waited for A love to call my own Can't explain how it feels, but I like it I like it, yes I do Of all the places in the world That I could call my home There's nowhere else I would be but beside you Just lying with you [Chorus: Phonte] [Carlitta Durand] I used to be a lonely girl Until I found you And then you became my world Always think of you Oh, I'm so excited I don't want to fight it, no Just take me in your arms, tonight [Chorus: Carlitta Durand] [Phonte] My friends, your friends, always got their eye on me Always tryna spy on me, outlook narrow They like crabs in a barrel, or like ants in a colony They front, but I'm thinking lakefront property So that we can properly, get a slice of life I'll be there with you, share with you Make sure you got a piece of mind to recline from the fighting and the arguing Teetering and tottering, just waiting for the fall Spend all night waiting for your call Would have called first but I ain't want you to think a nigga soft Fuck it, I guess you've proved me wrong I guess you know the reason why I put you in this song Because you are my melody, I mean, my inner song A sun ray of light that lets me know the winter's gone Ain't no anger when I'm tangled in your hair girl Skip the bojangling, just be my Lena Horne It's so good to have you back where you belong Right here in my arms, you know what I'm saying?
