Intro: Tonight's the night that you belong to me. Tonight's the night, there'll be no company. Oh, tonight, tonight's the night, tonight's the night, yes, sir, oh, yes, it is, now, listen to me, honey. Someone should call don't answer the phone. Somebody knocks on the door, tell 'em we're not home. I just want it to be, darling, nobody but me and you, honey, tonight. I don't want no friends around. There's a whole lot of sweet talk, girl, I'm gonna be putting down. Cut off the stereo, forget about the late, late show, cause tonight, honey, oh, tonight. Listen to me..(tonight's the night) and when the lights are low..(that you belong to me) I'm gonna lock all the doors..(tonight's the night) and throw away the key, baby..(you're mine exclusively.) And then I wanna talk to you some more, because tonight, I got something I want to say to you, honey, tonight, oooo-ooo-ooo. OUTRO: I wanna hear you say I do, and that ain't all, sugar. And when I get through, I want you to hold me, squeeze me with all of your might. Because tonight..(tonight, tonight) tonight is the night.
