Lyrics
Baby, let's stay home tonight
I don't wanna see no disco lights
And whenever the mood is right
I'm gonna take you in my arms and hold you tight
(Play something pretty for you) I wanna play something pretty to you, baby
And whisper something nice in your ear
Try to get a little closer (little closer to you)
I let you know just how much I care
(Play something pretty for you) whoa-oh, oh, yeah
(Play something pretty)
I wanna compliment the way you wear your hair
And that sweet smelling perfume you always wear
I let you know how I feel because I'm so proud
But it's hard to be romantic when you're out in a crowd
(Play something pretty for you) I wanna play something pretty to you, baby
And whisper something nice in your ear, well
Try to get a little closer to you, baby (little closer)
I let you know just how much I care
Oh, I love you, love you, love you, baby
Ooh-ooh
My, my, my, my, my, my
Oh-ooh
It's been so long since I slow danced with you (since I slow danced with you)
You're always tryin' some new disco dance to do (tryin' something new)
Tonight let's relax and have a good time
Put on some mellow sounds
Open up a bottle of that good wine
Oh, let me play something pretty to you, baby (play something pretty for you)
Oh, let me whisper something in your ear, well
Try to get a little closer (play something pretty)
And let you know just how much I care (for you)
Whoa-oh (play something pretty)
Try-la-la-la-la-la-la (for you)
Oh, try-la-la-la-la-la-la (play something pretty for you) oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, I wanna dance with you, girl (play)
Close to you, baby (something pretty for you)
And I'm gonna play something pretty for you, baby (play)
You deserve for me to play something pretty for you, baby (something pretty for you)
Whoa-oh, la-la-la-la-la-la-la (play something pretty for you)
Girl, let me play something pretty for you now
I don't wanna play for nobody but you, honey...
