Baby, don’t ice me out, don’t pass me by I’m catchin’ your swing ‘neath the starry sky I’m pacin’ your street till the lights go dim Hopin’ to snag your smile and dive right in (mm-hmm) I ain’t here to fuss, I’m here to prove Say the word tonight and I won’t move Be sweet, don’t play it cool (uh-huh) My pulse keeps time with you (mm-hmm) No tricks, no alibis Say yes and tell me you’re mine Last Saturday we sparked, then I walked too soon But every jukebox tells on me all afternoon I feed it nickels, let the record spin Your name in the chorus keeps pulling me in (oh yeah) Tell me what it takes and I’ll meet you there Flip that porch-light on, I’ll climb those stairs Pocket full of truth and a promise or two I’ll spend ‘em all tonight to get back to you Be sweet, don’t play it cool (uh-huh) My pulse keeps time with you (mm-hmm) Let’s drop the maybe line Say yes and tell me you’re mine Be sweet… to this steady heart— right now!
