Never felt so good before

Never dreamed I would explore

Making love in the positions

That you've got me doing

Never thought I'd beg for more

Never thought I'd find a man

Who could do it again and agian

And then even do it like once again

I've never trembled in my life

I've heard about it once or twice

But now I'm shaking

And I swear this shaking feels so nice

And I don't know what I'm goin' to do

'cause I don't wanna be away from you

You should'na felt so good

Lord knows I've never felt this good

It's wonderful

Well there's only one thing I need to know



Can I stay with you, babe

For the rest of the night

Can I stay with you, babe

For the rest of my life

Can I stay with you, babe

Through the end of all time

Oh, baby, please

Let me stay through the night



I've never been so weak before

Never met a man so sure

Sure of how and when and where to touch

And just how much

I've never been to ecstacy

But now I'm feelin' it, feelin' it

Over and over and over

And over and over and over and over

Whatever I can do for your love

You just ask, consider it done

And I'll do anything

Whatever you want, whenever you need it

And I just want to give it all to you

More than you could ever expect me to

I swear whatever you do

I'll do it three times back to you

I'm good to go

Well there's only one thing I need to know



Hook



One night of love

It turned me around, it turned me

One night of love

And I'll never be the same, I'll never ever be the same

One night of love

And I'm deep in love

Blew my heart away
