Rave On

Rick Nelson · The Last Time Around 1970 - 1982 [2010]

(S. West / B. Tilghman / N. Petty)



Little things you say and do,

Make me wanna be with you

Rave on, it's a crazy feelin'

I know it's got me reelin'

When you say, you say you love me, rave on.



The way you dance and hold me tight

The way your kisses say goodnight

Rave on it's a crazy feelin'

And I know it's got me reelin'

When you say, you say you love me, rave on



Rave on it's a crazy feelin'

I know it's got me reelin'

When I'm so glad that you're leavin' your love for me rave on

Come on and tell me, tell me, not to be lonely.



Tell me, you love me only, rave on

Rave on it's a crazy feelin'

I know it's got me reelin'

I'm so glad that you're leavin' your love for me, rave on.



Come on and tell me, tell me, not to be lonely

Tell me, you love me only, rave on...
