Lyrics[]

[Verse 1]
Will you be tonight, the man I used to know
And used to be my real true love
Will you be the one, to hold me
Will you be the... one, to love me more and more

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll show you the way
In how to believe in what you feel
Oh, I may be right, I may be wrong
Even the things I can't explain
Are heading for something

[Chorus - Repeat Twice]
Baby, Make Up Your Mind!
Follow your dreams until the night is over!
Baby, Make Up Your Mind!
Follow your heart and do it like a dreamer!

[Verse 2]
Baby see tonight, the moon is just as bright and clear
As when we fell in love
All around is dark
So baby, open up your... eyes, and gaze at stars above
