Lyrics: Bobby Eli/Vinnie Barrett
The time is right
You hold me tight
And love's got me high
Please tell me, yes
And don't say no, honey
Not tonight
I need to have you next to me
In more ways than one
And I refuse to leave
Till I see the morning sun
Creep through your window pane
'Cause love won't let me wait
Not one more minute, baby
The time is right
Turn down the lights
And take my hand
We'll take a flight
And spend the night
In a wonderland
Now move a little close to me
You owe it to yourself
And I will selfishly
Take a little for myself
And it's because of you
That love won't let me wait
No, listen girl
I need your love so desperately
And only you can set me free
When I make love to you
We'll explode in ecstacy
And I won't take the blame
That love won't let me wait
No, love won't let me wait
Temperature's risin
Love won't let me wait
'Cause you're so tantilizin'
Love won't let me wait
