Treat me sweet and gentle when we say goodnight
Just squeeze me, but please don't tease me
I get sentimental when we say goodnight
Just squeeze me, but don't tease me
Missing you since you went away
Singing the blues away each day
Counting the nights and waiting for you
I'm in the mood to let you know
I never knew I loved you so
Please say you love me too
When I get this feeling, I'm in ecstasy
