Steve Estes feat. Eva Cassidy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
there's no one quite like you
since you first walked through my door
my life's become brand new
i never wanted a love before
the way that i want you (oh-oh)
Baby let me hold you tight tonight
and never let you go
i'll never let you go
You can do what no one else can do
it's like you don't have to try
i wanna spend all my time with you
when i'm with you i can fly
i know i'm really hooked on you
there's lots of reasons why
Baby let me hold you tight tonight
and never let you go (oh-oh)
your sweet loving makes me feel so right
i'll never let you go
Baby let me hold you tight tonight
and never let you go
your sweet loving makes me feel so right
i'll never let you go
You're the one i've been looking for
there's no one quite like you
since you first walked through my door
my life's become brand new (oh-oh)
i never wanted a love before
the way that i want you
Baby let me hold you tight tonight
and never let you go
your sweet loving makes me feel so right
i'll never let you go

Same and it's understandable
@smilesandthetwistedmd7608
Not really understandable considering she was made by being a backup singer over singing the lead singer. Lol

@augustosilva2051
@@smilesandthetwistedmd7608the backtrack that she was using gives the problem, so her told to not put the backtrack anymore to her singing and don't be embarrassed. She was talking with the sound guys, not with the backing singers.
@JohnHoulgate
