She got my full attention With an out of nowhere question I thought she knew the answer to She felt the need to ask Cause just last night she'd had Some crazy dream about losin' me She said do I still turn you on and fill your every need I need to hear you say you still love me [Chorus] And I don't mean sometimes Not almost always Not a little or most times All night and all day Tell me I'm (Darlin' you're) in you (my) heart and on your (my) mind Baby and I don't mean sometimes I told her darlin' shake me Next time that you're awakened By the thought that I could go And I'll take you in my arms Oh with all my heart I'll make it clear that I ain't going nowhere Yes you're all I want and all I'll ever need I'm still hopelessly in love as I can be She got my full attention With an out of nowhere question I thought she knew the answer to.
