Lyrics

Lovers

[Verse 1]

Let's take our time and concentrate

The mood is right for living

Ooh, I can't wait

I've waited so long

To be with you this special way

Don't be afraid

Afraid to stay

And share your love with me this way

I understand, baby

It's your very first time

I'll be gentle with you baby

It's gonna be alright

And so if we're gonna be together tonight

I'll be good to you, baby

Sweet to you lady

Guess what we're gonna be tonight

[Chorus]

Lovers

Baby, let me be your lover

Lovers

Let me be the only one

Lovers

Baby, let me be your lover

Lovers

Let me be the one

[Verse 2]

Don't let your thoughts

Get in the way

The time is right for love

It's not too late

The feeling's so strong

To be as one this special way

Just take my hand

I'll lead the way

I need you so much

Baby, won't you stay

[Chorus] X3

Lovers

Baby, let me be your lover

Lovers

Let me be the only one

Lovers

Baby, let me be your lover

Lovers

Let me be the one

I wanna hold you

I wanna touch you

I wanna squeeze you

I'll never tease you

Hold you tight

All through the night

I'm gonna make you feel alright
