(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
(boom-boom-boom-boom)
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Take me in your arms and never let me go
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Whisper to me softly while the moon is low
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Hold me close and tell me what I wanna know
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Say it to me gently, let the sweet talk flow
Come a little closer, make love to me
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Kiss me once again before we say good night
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Take me in your lovin' arms and squeeze me tight
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Put me in a mood so I can dream all night
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Everybody's sleepin' so it's quite all right
Come a little closer, make love to me
When you're near, so help me, dear
Chills run up my spine
Don't you know I love you so?
I won't be happy till you're mine
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
When I'm in your arms you give my heart a treat
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Everything about you is so doggone sweet
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Ev'ry time we kiss you make my life complete
(ba-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Baby doll, ya know ya swept me off my feet
Now's the time to tell you "Make love to me"
{REPEAT LAST VERSE except last line becomes}
Now's the time to tell you "Hey, baby make love to me"
