Warm night
can't sleep
too hurt
too weak
Gotta call her up
Dial that number
no one answers
'til it's two o'clock
And if by chance
you let me come over
Out on the street
I wanna see you baby
And if by chance
you let me just hold ya
I'm down on my knee
I wanna please you baby
Ooh I'll be your
righteous lover
She said
Sugar honey darlin'
I really wanna see you too
I bet you do
bet you do
bet you do
It's just that
someone's over
and baby
I really wanna
be with you
But if by chance
you let me just hold ya
I'm callin'
I'm free
I wanna see you baby
Ooh when in need
you said you wouldn't
be here
And you hold the key
to my very being baby I
I love you baby
If you are
that special lover
And love keeps you
tied to another
That's the way it goes
on love's train
Sometimes heartstrings
can be broken
but you just have to
keep on goin'
That's the way it goes
on love's train
On a warm night
lady wants her baby
So she calls him up
Oh when it ring-a-ling

And if by chance

right here
Well I'm in need
I need you to please believe

You don't need no ticket

Sometimes heartstrings

That's the way it goes
on love's train
Listen baby
