[Verse 1]
Step inside, love
Let me find you a place
Where the cares of the day
Will be carried away
By the smile on your face
We are together
Now and forever
Come my way
Step inside, love, and stay

[Chorus]
Step inside, love
Step inside, love
Step inside, love
I want you to stay

[Verse 2]
You look tired, love
Let me turn down the light
Come in out of the cold
Rest your head on my shoulder
And love me tonight
I'll always be here
If you should need me
Night and day
Step inside, love, and stay

[Chorus]
Step inside, love
Step inside, love
Step inside, love
I want you to stay

[Verse 3]
When you leave me
Say you'll see me again
For I know in my heart
We will not be apart
And I'll miss you 'til them
We'll be together
Now and forever
Come my way
Step inside, love, and stay

[Chorus]
Step inside, love
(I want you to)
Step inside, love
(You know I do)
Step inside, love
I want you to stay

Perhaps best known as a TV personality, Cilla Black was the most commercially successful female pop musician of the 1960s.

Born Priscilla Maria Veronica White in Liverpool in 1943, she changed her name after a local journalist got it wrong when reporting on her performances with local Merseybeat bands. The Beatles introduced her to Brian Epstein, who took her to George Martin and made her a star.

Internationally, her biggest hit is “You’re My World”, but her fame is mostly contained to Britain.
