[Intro]
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Tonight's the night
Things are finally gonna be better
Tonight our time has finally come
And wrong or right
You're the only thing that matters
Tonight our lives become as one

[Pre-Chorus]
Both of my arms are open wide
Come on and open up your heart
And let me in, let me in

[Chorus]
Tonight the walls will crumble down
Tonight we're going all the way
Tonight when no one is around
I'm gonna push aside my fears tonight
I'm gonna love you, yes, I am

[Verse 2]
This time around won't be like any other
This time around, I know for sure
In you I found that a friend can be a lover
In you I finally found a cure

[Pre-Chorus]
Both of my arms are open wide
Come on and open up your heart
And let me in, whoa
Let me in

[Chorus]
Tonight the walls will crumble down
Tonight we're going all the way
Tonight when no one is around
I'm gonna push aside my fears tonight
I'm gonna love you

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Whoa...
Open up your heart and let me in
Whoa-oh-oh-oh...

[Chorus]
Tonight the walls will crumble down
Tonight we're going all the way
Tonight when no one is around
I'm gonna push aside my fears tonight
And I'm gonna love you, yes, I am

[Outro]
I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna love you tonight, yes, I am
I'm gonna love you, whoa...
You know I'm gonna love you tonight
Tonight
Each and every moment
Each and every hour
I'm gonna love you...
