Please Let Me Love You Tonight

Been sittin’ here thinkin’ all day long Wantin’ to-say somthin’ that didn’t sound wrong You walk around the corner and your smile meets mine My heart starts racin’ like it does every time I knew this could be a special night Wanted it to work out just right So I practiced the words all day Had ‘em all arranged so I could say Please let me love you tonight Will you be my wife? I want to be with you tonight And the rest of my life Please let me love you tonight Her tears comin’ down were a sight to see Took my hand smiled and said to me You know I love you a lot I don’t even know how to stop I took her in my arms held real tight My tears runnin’ down were quite a sight Now we’re both cryin’ unsure why Guess we knew this was for life Please let me love you tonight Will you be my wife? I want to be with you tonight And the rest of my life Please let me love you tonight We walked that night in the rain Not really carin’ what we were sayin’ We were married on a warm day in May Flowers everywhere scented the day I said my vows as I looked in her eyes Seeing only love no compromise I’ll always remember that fine day Me tryin’ to find the right words to say Please let me love you tonight Will you be my wife? I want to be with you tonight And the rest of my life Please let me love you tonight Yeah baby please let me love you tonight Please let me love you tonight You know I will for the rest of my life… Some have asked about how song turned out. Check for on itunes under my name Shawn Sackman. Thanks.
