Jimmy Rushing - Tell Me I'm Not Too Late lyrics
Artist: Jimmy Rushing
album: Every Day I Have the Blues
I've been giving you the run around, playing hard to get
I've been giving you the run around, playing hard to get
Kept you dangling on a string, ever since the day we met
But tonight is the night, sweetheart, I must confess
Yes, tonight is the night, sweetheart, I must confess
You're the only girl in the world that brought me real happiness
I can't begin to tell you, how you made me love you so
Yeah, I can't begin to tell you, how you made me love you so
Every time I look at you, I can feel the overflow
All I wanna do baby, hold you in these arms of mine
All I wanna do baby, is hold you in these loving arms of mine
Turn on my love light, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
Now I'm ready to settle down, please don't make me wait
Yes I'm ready to settle down, please don't make me wait
Baby, baby, please tell me I'm not too late
