Let . . . me . . . call you baby tonight ( Un ha! Un ha! )

Let . . . me . . . hold you 'till the mornin' light ( Un ha! Un ha! )

Let . . . me . . . call you baby tonight,

Oh I need you so much an' now that I have found you

I wanna feel my arms around you

Let . . . me . . . call you baby tonight!

Here I sit at a table all alone,

watchin' you the way I have, so many times before,

an' tonight, just like me, you're lonely too

an' the sadness that you're showin'

makes me want you even more!

So, won't you . . .

Let . . . me . . . call you baby tonight ( Un ha! Un ha! )

Let . . . me . . . hold you 'till the mornin' light ( Un ha! Un ha! )

Let . . . me . . . call you baby tonight,

Oh I need you so much an' now that I have found you

I wanna feel my arms around you

Let . . . me . . . call you baby tonight!

Let . . . me . . . call you baby tonight ( Un ha! Un ha! )

Let . . . me . . . hold you 'till the mornin' light ( Un ha! Un ha! )

Let . . . me . . . call you baby tonight . . . < to fade >
