Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make you my woman
I'll give you my love
With sweet surrender
Tonight our hearts will beat as one
And I'll hold you, I'll touch you
Make you my woman tonight
There's something in your eyes I see
A pure and simple honesty
Hold me in your arms tonight
Fill my life with pleasure
Let's not waste this precious time
This moment's ours to treasure
Hold me in your arms tonight
We'll make it last forever
When the morning sun appears
We'll find our way together
I believe you
When you say that you love me
Know that I won't take you for granted
Tonight the magic has begun
So won't you hold me touch me
Make me a woman tonight
There's something in your eyes I see
I won't betray your trust in me
Hold me in your arms tonight
Fill my life with pleasure
Let's not waste this precious time
This moment's ours to treasure
Hold me in your arms tonight

And touch you (touch me, baby)
Make you my woman (make me a woman)
