Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every day you're walkin' by and I can see
How you shine
But here I am alone with nothin' but a dream
That you are mine
Just exactly what I'll do, I don't know, baby
But I gotta find a way to reach you
[Verse 2]
Tell me what I gotta do
To get to your house
Tell me where I gotta go
To be with you
Tell me what I gotta say
To speak to your heart
Tell me what I need to know tonight
[Verse 3]
So everything will be alright
Alright
Make it alright
[Verse 4]
Every night I wonder just how it would feel
Close to you
I imagine that this fantasy is real
You're lovely, too
[Verse 5]
I got to get from here to there
Here and now, baby
Open up your arms and let me love you
[Verse 6]
Tell me what I gotta do
To get to your house
Tell me where I gotta go
To be with you
Tell me what I gotta say
To speak to your heart
Tell me what I need to know tonight
So everything will be alright
Oh
[Verse 7]
I gotta get from here to there
Here and now, baby
Open up your arms and let me love you
[Verse 8]
Tell me what I gotta do
To get to your house
Tell me where I gotta go
To be with you
Tell me what I gotta say
To speak to your heart
Tell me what I need to know tonight
[Verse 9]
Mama knows
[Verse 10]
Tell me what I gotta do, oh, what I gotta do
To get to your house
Tell me what I gotta give
To be with you
Tell me what I gotta give
To get to your house
Tell me what I gotta give
To be with you
[Verse 11]
Tell me what I gotta give
What I gotta say
I gotta go, what I gotta do, gotta give, somebody
