Gonna Be a Beautiful Night

And I can tell by the look in your eyes
It’s gonna be a beautiful night
I said it’s gonna be a beautiful night, baby doll, baby doll
And I can tell by the way that you’re looking at me
That it’s gonna be a beautiful night
I said it’s gonna be a beautiful night, baby doll, baby doll
All of my life I’ve waited for a love to call my own
Can’t explain how it feels, but I like, I like it, yes I do
Of all the places in the world that I could call my home
There’s nowhere else I would be but beside you, just lying with you
I used to be a lonely girl, until I found you
And then you became my world, always think of you
Oh, I’m so excited
I don’t want to fight it, no
Just take me in your arms tonight
My friends, your friends, always got their eye on me
Always tryin' to spy on me, outlook narrow
They’re like crabs in a barrel or like ants in a colony
They front, but I’m thinkin' lakefront property
So that we can be properly, get a slice of life
I’ll be there with you, share with you
Make sure you got a piece of mind to recline from the fighting and the arguing
Teetering and tottering, just waiting for the fall
Spend all night waiting for your call
Would have called first, but I ain’t want you to think a nigga soft
Fuck it, I guess you proved me wrong
I guess you know the reason why I put you in this song
Because you are my melody, I mean my inner song
A sunray of light that let’s me know the winter’s gone
Ain’t no anger when I’m tangled in your hair girl
Skip the bojangling, just be my Lena Horne
It’s so good to have you back where you belong
Right here, in my arms
You know what I’m sayin'
