After The Night Is Over
The Three Degrees · Pop Masters: Vital Signs [2011]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, oooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Mm-mm-mm, mmmmm [Hahhhh..]
Oh, butterfly
High over feeling tonight
There's a touch of magic in the air
All the loving I need I wanna share
When you hold me tenderly,
There's no place on earth I'd rather be
I'm overwhelmed by what you say
Darling, you take my breath away
I know all good things must come to an end
But if the hands on the clock will only stop forever
Will you still want me? [Will you still want me?]
Will you still need me? [Will you still need me?]
Will you still love me after tonight is over?
Will you still want me? [Will you still want me?]
Will you still need me? [Will you still need me?]
Will you still love me after tonight is over?
Has the moon reached the sun
The moment soon were to come
That this love of mine I cannot hide
I need to know what you feel inside
Won't you give me a sign
Just to relieve my mind
Or just a word of your voice
Let me know that I'd make the right choice
This feeling I can go and I need to be real sure
That, baby, you won't let me down
Will you still want me? [Will you still want me?]
Will you still need me? [Will you still need me?]
Will you still love me after tonight is over, is over?
Will you still want me? [Will you still want me?]
Will you still need me? [Will you still need me?]
Will you still love me after tonight is over?
[break]
Want me [Will you still want me?]
Need me [Will you still need me?]
Love me after tonight is over
[Will you] Will you still want me? [Will you still want me?]
Need me [Will you still need me?]
Are you gonna love me after tonight is over?
[Will you, will you stll want me?]
Need me, hold me [Will you still need me?]
Love me after tonight is over, is over, is over, ohhh
[Will you, will you still want me?]
Hold me tight, put your hand in mine [Will you still need me?]
Hold me, love me, love me [After tonight is over]
Ohhh, ohhh, ohh
[Will you, will you still want me?]
Touch me, said you need me [Will you still need me?]
[Won't you, won't you after tonight is over]
After tonight is over
[Will you, will you still want me?]
[Will you, will you still need me?]
[Won't you, won't you after tonight is over]
