Oooh, I was created for you
So glad that I’ve waited for you

All night lover
Use your magic power
You can thrill me
All night lover
Thrill me by the hour

Every time you hold me
You just about control me
For so long, so strong
I’m gettin’ weaker

Each night with you
Is like a beginning
Oooh, renew me, do me
Send that lovin’ feelin’ right through me

All night lover
Ooh you light the fire
All night lover
Lovin’ never tires

I don’t wanna sleep now
I got too much to keep now
I dream, my dream
When I’m wide awake

I can’t believe the way you move me
you shake me, you take me
You don’t know how happy you make me

Oooh, I was created for you
So glad that I’ve waited for you
More and more you, I adore you

All night lover
Use your magic power
You can thrill me
All night lover
Thrill me by the hour

Every time you hold me
You just about control me
Oooh, renew me, do me
Send that lovin’ feelin’ right through me

All night lover oh you light the fire
Baby, baby all night lover
Thrill me by the hour you can thrill me
All night lover
Use your magic power
I can’t believe

You can thrill me
You can move me, you can groove me
All night lover
Use your magic power, all night lover
All night lover
Use your magic power
