[Verse 1: Mariah Carey]
Boy haven't you noticed
A gleam in my eye
Because of you
I'm a little hypnotized
But every time you're with me
I feel so positive
Now with a little love
Something's got to give

[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey]
A full moon
Is waiting in the twilight
Maybe soon
You will come to be my knight
Here we are
Hoping that we never part
Stay with me

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
Baby, won't you be my sweetheart
We could share a storybook romance
Won't you be my sweetheart
We could share a storybook romance
Just you and I

[Verse 2: Mariah Carey]
You are no Casanova
I know that you'll be true
And that's why
I'm so in love with you
But each romantic ending
You leave me at my door
But tonight
I'd like us to explore

[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey]
A full moon
Is waiting in the twilight
Maybe soon
You will come to be my knight
Here we are
Hoping that we never part
Stay with me

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
Baby, won't you be my sweetheart
We could share a storybook romance
Won't you be my sweetheart
We could share a storybook romance
Just you and I

Sweetheart yeah

[Bridge: Mariah Carey]
Stars are bright
Mood is right
To keep me warm away from harm
Nowhere better than my baby's arms
Stars are bright
Mood is right
To keep me warm away from harm
Won't you be mine, won't you be my

Sweet sweet sweet sweet

We could share a storybook romance
Won't you be my sweetheart
We could share a storybook romance
Just you and I

[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
(Sweet)
Sweetheart
We could share a storybook romance
Won't you be my sweetheart
(Won't you be my sweetheart yeah)
We could share a storybook romance
(Oh baby be mine baby yeah)
Just you and I

[Outro: Mariah Carey & (Jermaine Dupri)]
Let's get together
Live happily ever after
No one to make us sad
Oh baby
You know I need your love
(Uh say what)
You know I need your love
(Uh say what)
(Mariah, you on fire)
