Lyrics

Baby, I’ve been drifting away
And dreaming all day
Of holding you, touching you
The only thing I wanna do
Is be with you
As close to you
As I can be
Let’s make love
All night long
Until all our strength is gone
Hold on tight
Just let go
I wanna feel you in my soul
Until the sun comes up (’til the sun comes up)
Let’s make love
Oh, baby
Do you know what you do to me?
Everything inside of me
Is wanting you and needing you
I’m so in love with you
Look in my eyes
Let’s get lost tonight
In each other
Let’s make love (let’s make love)
All night long
Until all our strength is gone
And hold on tight
Just let go
I wanna feel you in my soul
Until the sun comes up (’til the sun comes up)
Let’s make love
Let’s make love (let’s make love)
All night long
Until all our strength is gone (all our strength is gone)
And hold on tight (hold on tight)
Just let go
I wanna feel you in my soul (feel you in my soul)
Until the sun comes up (until the sun comes up)
Oh, until the sun comes up
Let’s make love
Oh baby, let’s make love
All night long
Let’s make love
