Lyrics
Let's sing along with the lyrics!
I've been yearning for a little romance
I wanna know when you're gonna give me a chance
Kiss me honey, tell me you're mine
Oh, don't you think it's time
I've been yearning for a sweet embrace
Rub my hair till I'm a total disgrace
Love me more, then make my life devour
Oh, don't you think it's time
I don't wanna walk without you
Walkin' right by my side
It hurts me to see you talkin'
With any other guy
I get so warm when you touch my cheek
You thrill me so much that I can hardly speak
Love me honey, tell me you're mine
Oh, don't you think it's time
I don't wanna walk without you
Walkin' right by my side
It hurts me to see you talkin'
To any other guy
I get so warm when you touch my cheek
You thrill me so much that I can hardly speak
Love me honey, make me feel so fine
Oh, don't you think it's time
Oh, don't you think it's time
Oh, don't you think it's time
Oh, don't you think it's time
