[Verse 1]
Funny that you should call
I was just sittin' by the telephone
Lookin' for a remedy
For all my misery
[Verse 2]
I'm sorry for what I said
It's just that I didn't think our first date should be in bed
Ooooh
I wanna let you be the one
But you oughta know I'm lookin' for a boy
That'll want me for more than one night of fun
[Chorus]
If I love you tonight
Promise me that you'll stay with me 'til the morning light
(Baby, can you stay until the morning light?)
Talk 2 me, tell me a story
Just tell me you'll hold me tight (Hold me)
If I love you tonight
[Verse 3]
I want you, this is true
When you looked at me I knew
This ain't no matter of pride (No no)
It's just that when tomorrow comes
I want you here by my side
[Chorus]
If I love you tonight
Promise me that you'll stay with me 'til the morning light
(Baby, can you stay until the morning light?)
Talk to me, tell me a story
Just tell me you'll hold me tight (Hold me)
If I love you tonight
[Bridge]
I'm lookin' for a boy
He don't have to be pure
(I am looking for a boy)
He just gotta be sho'nuff secure
(Sho'nuff secure)
If you want a lover, I'm the remedy
(I am the remedy, the remedy)
But boy, you gotta tell me what you gonna do for me
(What you gonna do, what you gonna do for me?)
[Modified Chorus]
If I love you tonight
Promise me that you'll stay with me
Until the morning light
(Baby, can you stay until the morning light?)
Talk to me, tell me a story
Just tell me you'll hold me tight (Hold me)
I'll make you breakfast
I'll drive you to work, boy
I'll treat you right
Promise me that you'll stay with me 'til the morning light
If I love you tonight (If I love you tonight)
[Outro]
Oh yeah, baby
I wanna give you my love
But you gotta promise me (if I love you tonight)
That you'll love me forever
Uh, yeah baby (if I love you tonight)
Uh, just like that, yeah
Ah, yeah
Right there
