Since the time we met never shall forget

The magic feeling when I look in your eyes

Every now and then I see you again

But the words never come out right

I've always been painfully shy

I hide what I feel inside

Tonight I (never let you get away)

Open my heart (Invite you in to stay)

I need you (more than words can say)

And I hope you feel the same

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

You've captured my heart

And I won't take no for an answer

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

Hope that there's a chance, Baby

That we can get together

Cause I (Gonna make you mine) gonna make you see

(Gonna make you mine) you were meant for me

(Gonna make you mine)

I wanna love you endlessly

Many times before I would just ignore

Love when it came around and knocked on my door

Keeping to myself, trusting no one else

I've put my heart out of reach on a shelf

With you I can't pass up this chance

For a once in a lifetime romance

Cause after all (someone said it very plain)

When it comes to love (no pain no gain)

I think I'll (take a chance on you)

And you know I play to win I'm

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

You've captured my heart

And I won't take no for an answer

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

Hope that there's a chance, Honey

That we can get together

Cause I (gonna make you mine)

Gonna make you see (Gonna make you mine)

You were meant for me (Gonna make you mine)

I wanna love you endlessly, yeah

Oh, I'm looking for one lifetime romance

(Someone said it very plain) I'll think I'll

(No pain no gain) Take a chance on you

(Take a chance on you)

Ooh, cause you know I play to win, Baby

(Gonna make you mine) I'll make you mine

(I'll make you mine)

You've captured my heart

And I won't take no for an answer

(Gonnna make you mine) I'm gonna make you mine)

( I'm gonna make you mine)

I believe there's a chance that we can get together

Cause I (Gonna make you mine)

Gonna make you see (Gonna make you mine)

You were meant for me (Gonna make you mine)

I wanna love you endlessly (Gonna make you mine)

(I'll make you mine) I'm gonna make you mine

And I won't take no for answer

(Gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine)

Oh, you've captured my heart

I know that we can get together, together, together

I'm gonna make you, and I'm gonna love you...

The daughter of jazz legend Nat King Cole, Natalie Marie Cole (February 6, 1950-December 31, 2015) was an R&B icon who was primarily active from 1956 until her death in 2015 due to congestive heart failure at age 65. She first rose to success in the mid-‘70s with Inseparable and Natalie and later spawning Grammy-recognized albums like Unforgettable…With Love, which took home Album of the Year.

Cole has nine Grammy Awards out of twenty-one nominations – only a small testament to her legend.
