Now I'm not like this
I'm really kind of shy
But I get this feeling
Whenever you walk by
I don't wanna doubt you
I wanna make you high
If you could see your way to me
Come on and let me try
Let me take ya home tonight
Mama now it's alright
Let me take ya home tonight
I'll show you sweet delight
Repeat intro 2x
You must understand this
I've watched you for so long
That I feel I've known you
I know it can't be wrong
If we just get together
I wanna make you see
I'm dreaming of your sweet love tonight
So mama let it be

I don't wanna lie
I just got to get loose
With you tonight

If we just get together

So mama let it be
