Started writing this with my sister Alyssa before I was really making music at all. And then developed it more when I got to Sofia and jammed it out with some friends at the Band House (thanks to Sofia, Viki, Joro, Jozepha and Guillaume!).
Really happy it finally got put down as a track, and I'm very thankful to Sofia for her verse and vocals! Golden voice :)
lyrics
(Verse 1)
Girl your eyes are tellin' me you want me
and your heart is beating kind of fast
and your touch makes me feel less lonely
so can I ask if you'll stay with me for a while
(Chorus)
Baby stay with me for tonight
Baby stay with me for tonight
Or maybe for a lifetime
(Verse 2)
Boy your style is making me go crazy
and your words are dancing in my mind
and you're bold, and know just how to hold me
so I guess you can stay with me a while
(Chorus)
Baby stay with me for tonight
Baby stay with me for tonight
Or maybe for a lifetime
(Verse 3)
Oh the night is gently growing colder
but the warm light of the dawn is suddenly in sight
and the soul was made for more than just a chemical emotion
there's a strong connection and far greater bonds
discovered in good time
(Chorus)
Baby stay with me for tonight
Baby stay with me for tonight
Or maybe for a lifetime
