Well I feel as though I'm on 42nd Street again,

Confiding in myself as my only true friend.

When an unexpected visit leads to more than planned.

Next thing I'm thinking is: your wish is my command.

Now is this just a feeling? ‘Cause I really need more.

I'm praying silently: Please don't walk out my door.

My mind starts spinning, oh how I need you to stay

With me forever, but at least I'll say:

Be my baby tonight.

Be my baby tonight.

Hold me tight

Until the break of dawn.

Oh, well the night is coming to it's close,

I'm wondering where and how far this will go.

Even after this quite disturbing interference,

I leave worried about your perseverance.

Is the feeling still the same?

It's my only worry and I'm trying to maintain.

Oh, somehow I know this was meant to be.

And forever doesn't seem that long, but at least

Be my baby tonight.

Be my baby tonight.

Let me hold you close and tight

And never let you go.

Some poignant hits… my insides after a silent call.

I began to think that maybe I'd taken a fall

In lust not love, but no this can't be right.

I need you to stay with me forever and a night.

Things are looking good now, but there's something in the way.

Oh, those three words I long to hear you say.

Clear the path, if not now maybe someday.

If we're not forever, at least I can say:

You were my baby tonight.

And I'm feeling all right.

Now that your by my side stay

Forever and a day.

Be my baby for life.

Be my baby for life.

Let's hold each other tight

And never ever let go.
