[Intro]
Thank you very much
[Verse 1]
Hey love
May I have a word with you?
I'd like to tell you, yeah
Just what I've been going through
My nights are so long
As I watch each hour go by
Hoping and praying
That someday I will be your guy
[Chorus]
Hey love
Why, you're my one true soul desire
Oh, my lovely, lovely, lovely baby
Can you feel this burning fire?
[Verse 2]
Hey, hey, hey, hey love
There's one thing I find so true
When you're near Stevie love, when you're near me, baby
You send Steve through a change or two, mmm-hmm
Hearing your footsteps
I hurry to catch your eye
Stand there waiting, I stand there waiting, baby
Oh, but, darling girl, you just walk on by
[Chorus]
Say love
With a cold heart you are dealing
Oh, my sweet, my baby, yeah yeah
It's an awful hurting feeling
Woo, oh
[Verse 3]
Little bitty lover
Don't pass me without some sign (Hey love)
Look me over, baby, look me over, love
Hmm, you might want to change your mind
[Outro]
Hey love
Stevie pretty little lovely one
Oh, my love, baby, baby
You know I need your love
Because you please me, lover
Let me hear you say "Hey lover," come on
I really love you, little lovely one—say it, baby
Because you please me, lover
Everybody needs somebody, and I need you
You know I do, baby
'Cause everything's good about you
I couldn't do without you
And if you ever need me
It shoulda been your Stevie
And can't you hear me say
"Hey love, hey love, hey love, hey love"
Lovely one
Thank you very much
