Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Baby, I know you're outside, in here, it's warm and dry

Got feelings that I've gotta try expressing, like

A language that I share with you, let's talk in the special way we do

Don't wanna be anywhere else but here with you, feels so good

[Verse 2]

Day and night, day and night

You blow my mind, blow my mind

And I can't help, help myself at all

I can't hold back

[Verse 3]

Day and night, day and night

You blow my mind, blow my mind

And I can't help, help myself from falling

So, I'm waiting for the night

[Verse 4]

Baby, I know it's late, we've got decisions to make

Think of what we could create together

And with you, I am never afraid, to play with the highest stakes

Nobody could break my rapture

[Verse 5]

Day and night, day and night

You blow my mind, blow my mind

And I can't help, help myself at all

I can't hold back

[Verse 6]

Day and night, day and night

You blow my mind, blow my mind

And I can't help, help myself from falling

So, I'm waiting for the night

[Verse 7]

I can't control it in the night, night, night

It's when I got you on my mind, mind, mind

'Cause you're the twinkle in my eye, eye, eye

I gotta get you in my life, life, life

[Verse 8]

Can't think of nothing worse, than being lonely

I think you're the right choice, my one and only

We're running outta time, so baby, hold me

Days go by

[Verse 9]

Day and night, day and night

You blow my mind, blow my mind

And I can't help, help myself at all

I can't help myself at all

[Verse 10]

Day and night, day and night

You blow my mind, blow my mind

And I can't help, help myself from falling

So, I'm waiting for the night

[Verse 11]

Oh, I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting

I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting

I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting

So, I'm waiting for the night

[Verse 12]

Oh, I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting

I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting

I'm waiting, I'm waiting, I'm waiting

So, I'm waiting for the night

[Verse 13]

Yeah, I really wanna see you

I really wanna see you tonight

Yeah, I really wanna see you

Yeah, I really wanna see you tonight

[Verse 14]

Don't keep me waiting-waiting, don't keep me waiting for the night

Don't keep me waiting-waiting-waiting for the night

Don't keep me waiting-waiting, don't keep me waiting for the night

Don't keep me waiting-waiting-waiting for the night

[Verse 15]

Waiting for the night

Waiting for the night

Waiting for the night

Waiting for the night
