Step inside love
Let me find you a place
Where the curse of the day
Will be carried away
By the smile on your face
We are together now and forever
Come my way

Step inside love and stay
Step inside love
Step inside love
Step inside love
I want you to stay

You look tired, love
Let me turn down the light
Come in out of the cold
Rest your head on my shoulder
And love me tonight
I'll always be here if you should need me
Night and day

Step inside love and stay
Step inside love
Step inside love
Step inside love
I want you to stay

When you leave me
Say you'll see me again
For I know in my heart
We will not be apart
And I'll miss you till then
We'll be together now and forever
Come my way

Step inside love and stay
Step inside love
I want you to
Step inside love
You know I do
Step inside love
I want you to stay
