Words and Music by Rick Nielsen, Bun E. Carlos, Robin Zander, and Tom Petersson
Tonight, tonight, I`ll be with you tonight.
Tonight, tonight, I`ll be with you tonight, tonight, tonight.
You got me burnin`, burnin` with desire,
You got me burnin`, burnin` like a fire, oh yeah.
You got me thinkin`, thinkin` what I`ll do,
No doubt about it, I want it with you.
Though you`re not my first love,
You just might be my last.
My heart is poundin` like a drum, drum, drum, drum, drum, drum, drum, yeah.
Tonight will be the first night that I`ve been in love with you.
You get me so excited, I`m not sure what I`m gonna do.
Tomorrow you won`t be here, and I don`t expect you to.
Tonight is all I really want, I really want from you.
Tonight, tonight, I`ll be with you tonight.
Tonight, tonight, I`ll be with you tonight.
Tonight, tonight.
Everything about you is more than everything
You make me crazy, I`m doin` crazy things, oh yeah.
Tonight when I first saw you I knew it had to be,
Why`d you have to be so right for me?
Though you`re not my first love, you just might be my last.
My heart is poundin` like a drum, drum, drum, drum, drum, drum, drum, yeah.
Tonight will be the first night that I`ve been in love with you.
You get me so excited, I`m not sure what I`m gonna do.
Tomorrow you won`t be here, and I don`t expect you to.
Tonight is all I really want, I really want from you.
Tonight, from you, from you.
(chorus)
Oo, tonight, be with ya, I`ll be with ya, I`ll be with ya, I`ll be with ya tonight, tonight.
I`ll be with ya.
(Repeat to Coda)
