I've got one evenin' left before I go
Don't want to spend it on my own
This time tomorrow, I'll be on the road
So I got to get on the telephone

I need to see you girl, before I go away
Just got to have your love to remember
Your precious company, ooh that's what I need today
I won't be back until' september

You give me pleasure like I never had
I guess you know just what I like
Even if I'm not your only man
You make me feel as if I am

So tonight I wanna have you to myself
'Cause I'm leavin' in the mornin' light
Don't want you runnin' to no one else
Just wanna love you tonight

Tonight I wanna have you to myself
Said, "I'm leavin', leavin' leavin' in the mornin' light
Don't want you runnin' to no one else
Just wanna love you tonight

There is a sayin' you better not forget
It's always come true for me
They say that what you see is what you get
And woman, you're all that I can see

That's why I'm askin' you, oh just try and understand me, baby
This ain't time for silly games and I'm a desperate man
Can't you hear it in my voice?
Without your love I just wouldn't be the same

So I'm puttin' my heart out to you, my love
Doin' everything within my power
Now I've done my best, did I hear you say yes?
I'll be 'round at your door within the hour

'Cause tonight I wanna have you to myself
Said, "I'm leavin' in the mornin' light"
Don't want you runnin' to no one else
I just wanna love you tonight

Tonight I wanna have you to myself
Said, "I'm leavin', goin' away"
I got nothin' to say but I'm leavin', leavin'
Don't want you runnin' to no one else
I just wanna love you tonight

I love you, love you, love you, love you
Love you, love you, oh yes I love you
Oh I, oh I, oh I
