TONIGHT’S THE NIGHT BY BETTY WRIGHT

LYRICS

Hmm, hmm, mmm, mmm
Tonight is the night
That you make me a woman, mmm
You said you’ll be gentle with me
And I, I hope you will, mmm, mmm
I’m nervous and I’m trembling
Waitin’ for you to walk in
I’m tryin’ hard to relax
But I just can’t keep still, no
I can hear your car door slammin’
I wanna play big girl and put on a sexy smile
But I know so little about what love is
I just can’t help actin’ like a child
You’re knockin’ on my door and you’re ringin’ my bell
Hope you’re not impatient after waiting so very long
A whole year I put you off with my silly hang-ups
And we’re both old enough to know right from wrong
Tonight is the night
That you make me a woman, mmm
You said you’ll be gentle with me
And I-I hope you will, hmm, mmm
I’m nervous and I’m tremblin’
Waitin’ for you to walk in
I’m tryin’ hard to relax
But I just can’t keep still
Hey, baby
Ho, ho, baby
Ho, yeah, yeah
Oh, but what if my mama should come home early
And catch us doin’ what we’re doin’
Not only will I never live it down
But my whole family relationship it’ll all be ruined
But we’ve gone a little bit too far now
Oh, to turn around
So let’s just pray
That true love is what we’ve found
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
I’ll never forget tonight
No, no, I’ll never forget tonight
When you make me feel real, mmm, hmm
You make me feel real, real good
Oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, whoa
Yeah, and I wanna thank your love
Said I’ve got to thank your love
‘Cause you make me feel good

  1. The moon is bright
    your beauty shines
    you know me, love
    we’ll take our time
    just in my arms
    tonight’s the night
    A kiss, just one.
    I’ll stop your tears
    & hold your heart
    & calm your fears
    undress you slowly
    kiss you warmly
    & find the poetry
    with our bodies.

  2. Dance with my words
    if I kiss yours tonight,
    hold you close to me
    and start another fire?
    I’m waiting for your touch
    but I can’t relax wondering
    if you’re really mine,
    do you still see my eyes?
    Take my kiss as it finds
    you at my door,
    making me make you
    as we start another dance.

  3. Tonight is the night
    I’ll not allow you cower
    In the shades of your inaction.
    Close your eyes
    Hold my hands
    Let me show you where I tickle
    As I make you a man.
    Tonight is the night.

  4. Tonight is the night
    we meet again
    on a sweet refrain
    where love is nigh..
    Sweetheart of mine
    let’s soar in style
    under the starlight sky
    as the moon shines
    so adorn our hearts
