Jesse McCartney Lyrics

My
My
My
My

She steps to the groove
Her body in tune
She stops the whole room
She got to everybody
The red of her lips
So hard to resist
The curve to her hip
I gotta tell somebody

[Chorus]
I'm helplessly falling into your eyes like whoaoa
I'm hopelessly in love for the first time like whoaoa
Gotta make ya my baby
Wanna make ya my baby
Gotta make ya my baby
Wanna make ya my baby
Gotta make ya my baby
Wanna make ya my baby
Gotta make ya my baby

My baby

She throws me a sigh
A wink in her smile
I stopped and I died
Could she be looking at me
With nothing to prove
Shes makin' her move
And as she walked through




Leaned in to tell me somethin'

[Chorus]

She took my hand and led me cross the dance floor
Everybody watching like oh no
The kind of girl you could only ever pray for
All the cameras flashing like oh no no no no
And as we left together
She whispered something soft and sweet so right
She said I'd love to love you all through the night

[Chorus]

My baby

Gotta make ya
My baby
Wanna make ya
My baby
Gotta make ya
My baby
Wanna make ya
My baby
Gotta make ya
My baby
Wanna make ya
My baby
Gotta make ya
My baby
My baby
