Lyrics

I'll Be Your Baby Tonight

Close your eyes - close the door

You don't have to worry any more

I'll be your baby tonight

Shut the light - shut the shade

You don't have to be afraid

I'll be your baby tonight

Well, the mockingbird's gonna sail away

We're gonna forget it

Big old moon's gonna shine like a spoon

We're gonna let it - you won't regret it

Kick your shoes off - do not fear

Bring that bottle over here

I'll be your baby tonight

Be my baby

Be my baby

Be my baby

Be my baby

I'll be your baby tonight

Well, the mockingbird's gonna sail away

We're gonna forget it

Big old moon's gonna shine like a spoon

We're gonna let it - you won't regret it

Kick your shoes off - do not fear

Bring that bottle over here

I'll be your baby tonight

Be my baby

Be my baby

Be my baby

Be my baby

I'll be your baby tonight

I'll be your baby tonight

I'll be your baby tonight
