Yes
Merry Clayton Lyrics
Drivin' around
I just can't hear a sound
'Cept my own wheels turnin'
Wastin' the day I'm just runnin' away
From a heart that's a burnin'
But I can't run forever
Yes, we're gonna fall in love and it feels so right
Yes, we're gonna make love it's gonna be tonight
I can just imagine huggin' and tesin'
I've made up my mind
This is gonna be mine
I'm so glad I waited oh
Why did I try
To figure out why
Everything can't be anticipated
I can't wait to tell him
Yes, we're gonna fall in love and it feels so right
Yes, we're gonna make love it's gonna be tonight
I can just imagine huggin' and tesin'
And lovin' and squeezin' all night
Oh yes
Uh yeah I can just imagine huggin' and tesin'
And lovin' and squeezin' all night
Yes, we're gonna fall in love and it feels so right
Yes, we're gonna make love it's gonna be tonight
Yes, we're gonna fall in love and it feels so right
Yes, we're gonna make love it's gonna be tonight
Oh, yes, we're gonna fall in love and it feels so right
Yes, we're gonna make love it's gonna be tonight (gonna be, gonna be tonight)
Yes, we're gonna fall in love and it feels so right (it's gonna be, yeah)
Yes, we're gonna make love it's gonna be tonight (oh yeah, oh yeah)
