Oh, take a little bit of my love tonight
And it will be alright.
Steal my heart away
It’ll be okay.
Won’t be hard for you to do,
‘Cause I want you to,
Steal my heart away.

We’re almost strangers,
We don’t know each other well.
I got a feeling
Before the break of dawn we will.
You’re slipping up on my heart,
Can’t you see I’m glad you are.

Oh, take a little bit of my love tonight
And it will be alright.
Steal my heart away
It’ll be okay
Won’t be hard for you to do,
‘Cause I want you to,
Steal my heart away.

Something tells me
That when this night is through.
You’re gonna have me
Right where I want you to.
You’re gonna sneak off with my heart.
So what are you waiting for.

Oh, take a little bit of my love tonight
And it will be alright.
Steal my heart away
It’ll be okay.
Won’t be hard for you to do,
‘Cause I want you to,
Steal my heart away.

Oh, take a little bit of my love tonight
It will be alright.
Steal my heart away
It’ll be okay
Won’t be hard for you to do,
‘Cause I want you to,
Steal my heart away…
