Lyric Be Mine Tonight

(Spooner/Steen/Prince/Welnick/Cotten/Anderson/Waybill/Styles)

Well the very first time that I saw you there
you know I couldn t believe my eyes
I thought I was the winner of the Price is Right
and they let me keep every prize

I ve never been famous as a ladies man
I m not known as a crazy guy
In fact I ve never made the papers over nothin at all
I think it s time somebody gave me a try

Baby, be mine tonight
and this ol world will turn out alright
Just to find you took a whole lifetime
I could lose you in a minute s time
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight

I don t know if you ve ever been in love before,
but I think this is my very first time
I wish someone could tell me what my next move is
I m afraid I m falling way behind

I know you ve been around about as much as I have
When the lights go out we ll see
You can further your education all your life
Honey, just don t make a fool out of me

Baby, be mine tonight
and this ol world will turn out alright
Just to find you took a whole lifetime
I could lose you in a minute s time
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight

I ve been left alone
I ve been on the streets so long
I feel like I m falling
or sinking in quicksand
Throw me out a line
Be a special friend of mine
I would love to take you home,
if I only had a home

Baby, be mine tonight
and this ol world will turn out alright
Just to find you took a whole lifetime
I could lose you in a minute s time
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight
Be mine tonight--baby, be mine tonight
