Human Nature · Other Songs - Human Nature
Baby I don't want you sleepin alone
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin alone tonight?
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin alone tonight?
Tell me what you're feelin baby
What's goin down behind those eyes so blue
I know there's no special lover, baby
'Cause I'm the one whose been waitin just to be there for you
CHORUS
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin' alone tonight?
You don't wanna lay in a bed so cold
So undress by my firelight
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin' alone tonight?
If you tell me baby that you don't know
Let me make up your name alright
Baby, you life me up
I'll move on down
I'll quench your love both inside and out
I'll taste your flesh
Baby you'll drink my wine
I'll take your love right down the halls of desire
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin' alone tonight?
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin alone tonight?
Now you can be my light
And I will turn you on
You and me feel so right
Now baby you ain't sleepin alone tonight
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
I'm not gonna let you go to waste tonight
CHORUS
Baby I don't want you sleepin' alone
Baby I don't want you sleepin' alone
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin alone tonight?
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin alone tonight?
Tell me what you're feelin baby
What's goin down behind those eyes so blue
I know there's no special lover, baby
'Cause I'm the one whose been waitin just to be there for you
CHORUS
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin' alone tonight?
You don't wanna lay in a bed so cold
So undress by my firelight
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin' alone tonight?
If you tell me baby that you don't know
Let me make up your name alright
Baby, you life me up
I'll move on down
I'll quench your love both inside and out
I'll taste your flesh
Baby you'll drink my wine
I'll take your love right down the halls of desire
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Are you sleepin' alone tonight?
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
