Original Version
[Verse 1] Don't hide or fight it, girl We feel it right along from the start First kiss, the tenderness The heavy beating of the heart

[Pre-Chorus] The sudden ecstasy When your arms cling to mine Now it's more than late To deny our love is fate

[Chorus] Got To Be Your Lover Baby, run for cover (?) I've got so much love inside Got To Be Your Lover So let's stay together Love gives lovers every ride

[Verse 2] Goodbye to former compromise I found and I'm making you stay One smile and suddenly I knew Got lucky on a lucky day

[Pre-Chorus 2] The cruel ecstasy To know that you are mine And the feeling's great So don't hesitate to say

[Chorus 2] Got To Be Your Lover You and me forever We got enough love inside Got To Be Your Lover Sharing love forever On the wings of love we'll fly

Got To Be Your Lover So let's stay together Love gives lovers every ride Got To Be Your Lover Don't deny my offer It's a case of do or die

[Bridge] Just you and me babe Found you and I'll never let you go Yeah, you and me love On the wings of love we'll fly

[Outro - Avobe the last chorus] (Got To Be Your Lover) Gotta be! You and me together, babe! Got To Be Your Lover! Love, love is feeling everywhere (?)
