  • I don't need no dreams when I'm by your side
    Every moment takes me to paradise
    Darlin', let me hold you
    Warm you in my arms and melt your fears away
    Show you all the magic that a perfect love can
    Make
    I need you night and day

    So baby, be mine (baby, you gotta be mine)
    And girl, I'll give you all I got to give
    So baby, be my girl (all the time)
    And we can share this ecstasy
    As long as we believe in love

    I won't give you reason to change your mind
    (I guess it's still you thrill me, baby, be mine)
    You are all the future that I desire
    Girl, I need to hold you
    Share my feelings in the heat of love's embrace
    Show you all the passion burning in my heart
    Today
    It's never gonna fade

    So baby, be mine (baby, you gotta be mine)
    And girl, I'll give you all I got to give
    So baby, be my girl (all the time)
    You're everything this world could be
    The reason that I live

    Won't you stay with me until the mornin' sun
    I promise you now that the dawn will be different
    Lady, can't you see that heaven's just begun
    It's livin' here inside our hearts

    There'll be no more mountains for us to climb
    (I can't be still you thrill me, baby, be mine)
    This will be a love lasting for all time
    Girl, you got to hold me
    We can touch the sky and light the darkest day
    Hold me, only you and I can make sweet love this way
    There's no more I can say

    So baby, be mine (baby, you gotta be mine)
    And girl, I'll give you all I got to give
    So baby, be my girl (all the time)
    You're everything this world could be
    The reason that I live

    Baby, be my girl
    And girl, I'll give you all I got to give
    So baby, be mine, baby, be mine
    You're everything this world could be to me

    C'mon, girl, c'mon girl
    So baby, be mine
    You're everything this world could be to me Writer/s: Rodney Lynn Temperton
