With Bobby Byrd

I'll tell it everywhere I go
My love for you is true
The whole wide world will know
I only have eyes for you

[CHORUS]

Baby, baby
Don't you understand
I want you to be
I want you to be
Yeah, lover man

Every second
Every minute, every hour
Baby, till the end of time
As long as I sit in my power
I'll make you mine, all mine

[Repeat CHORUS]

Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby

In the midnight hour when
My love for you comes down
Swear, pretty baby
You leave me spellbound
