Please let me walk you home
I wants to walk you home
Please let me walk you home
You look so good to me, oh-ooh-ee
I wish I was the lucky guy who could walk you right on down the aisle
I love the way you walk
I love the way you walk
I love to hear you talk
I'm not tryin' to be smart, I'm not tryin' to break your heart
But if I ask you for a date, will you tell me that I'm not too late
I want to hold your hand
Please let me hold your hand
I want to hold your hand
Please let me hold your hand
You look so good to me, oo-ooee
I saw you walking all alone, that's why I want to walk you home
So let me walk you home
Please let me walk you home
I want to walk you home
Please let me walk you home
You look so good to me, oh-ooh-ee
I saw you walking all alone, that's why I want to walk you home
That's why I want to walk you home, that's why I want to walk you home
That's why I want to walk you home
