Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

WELL, I DON`T WANT MUCH,
JUST WANT A LITTLE BIT.

DON`T WANT MUCH,

NO, JUST WANT A LITTLE BIT.

I WANT A LITTLE BITTY ITTY-BITTY

JUST A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR LOVE.


EARLY IN THE MORNING,

JUST A LITTLE BIT.

LATE IN THE EVENING,

JUST A LITTLE BIT.

`ROUND ABOUT MIDNIGHT,

JUST A LITTLE BIT.

I WANT A LITTLE BITTY ITTY-BITTY

JUST A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR LOVE.


WON`T YOU WALK WITH ME,

JUST A LITTLE BIT?

TALK TO ME,

JUST A LITTLE BIT.

I WANT A LITTLE BITTY ITTY-BITTY

JUST A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR LOVE.


TURN THE LAMPS DOWN LOW,

JUST A LITTLE BIT.

LOVE YOU SO,

LOVE ME A LITTLE BIT.

I WANT A LITTLE BITTY ITTY-BITTY

JUST A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR LOVE.


TURN YOUR LIGHTS DOWN LOW,

AND KINDLY SLIP ME A KISS,

TURN YOUR LIGHTS DOWN LOW,

I JUST CAN`T RESIST.

I WANT A LITTLE BITTY ITTY-BITTY

JUST A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR LOVE.


I WANT YOU FOREVER,

NOT JUST FOR PIECE OF MIND.

PLEASE, SAY YOU`LL NEVER LEAVE ME,

NOT `TIL THE END OF TIME.

I WANT A LITTLE BITTY ITTY-BITTY

JUST A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR LOVE.


I WANT A LITTLE BITTY ITTY-BITTY





JUST A LITTLE BIT OF YOUR LOVE.
