Evening Of Love Lyrics

Etta James Evening Of Love

How could she let a man as good as you
Slip through her fingers?
But then she didn't know
I was here standing in line

I would have never ever treated you bad
If I had met her
Because all my life, all my life
I've been the loving kind

Oh baby, why don't you spend
An evening of love with me?
And if we should fall in love
Ain't it just what we both need?

An evening of love to remember
I'm just as lonely as you are
Oh, baby
Oh, baby

I hope tomorrow, you'll wake up and find
You don't need her
And as long as I'm around
You never will

'Cause I wanna hold you as close to my heart
As my body will let me
And oh I know and I know the way
That you feel

Oh baby, why don't you spend
An evening of love with me?
And if we should fall in love
Ain't it just what we both need, hey, hey

An evening of love to remember
I'm just as lonely as you are
Oh, baby
Oh, baby

Oh baby, why don't you spend
An evening of love with me?
And if we should fall in love
Ain't it just what we both need?

Oh baby, why don't you spend
An evening of love with me?
If we should fall in love
Ain't it just what we both need?

Baby, why don't you spend
An evening of love with me?
If we should fall in love
Ain't it just what we both need, oh?
