Talking All Night
Hall And Oates · Ooh Yeah! [1988]
Yeah baby, ooh, what's you gonna do baby
All right
Ain't it funny I'm tied to the magic of your caress
Ain't it lovely how we fit together
Girl you're the best
And it seems like we've been talking forever
Words & wine
And we've been lost in time
On no, you're touching emotions I used to hide
Too deep inside
(12:45) quarter to one
We're talking all night (talking all night)
(1:45) quarter to two
We're talking all night (all night)
Heat of passion, the hours and minutes don't mean so much
I know the language of love is a tender touch yeah
Now listen baby, now speak slowly, make the night last forever, spill the wine
So you'll forget about time
Won't you break down & show me emotions you used to hide so deep inside
