I was feeling kind of insecure In a way I never felt before I went through my life with no guarantees I did whatever I wanted whenever I pleased Before I knew it we were out of the door And all I wanted was a little bit more You pulled the strings And girl I followed you home Just couldn't wait until I got you alone I wasn't looking for a love that's true But theirs no way that I'll get over you I'm not the kind to sweep you off your feet But hurry girl because I'm losing sleep Little darling your the only one My heart is racing like I'm on the run Yeah little darling wont you say you're gonna stay with me Get to your house without the rest of the band Some of these things don't always turn out as planned Called me a cab and as I walked out the door I felt like my heart was gonna fall through the floor I only wanted to hold you tight But you made it clear that this just wasn't my night I didn't mean to get in so deep Come on hurry darling I'm still loosing sleep Little darling your the only one My heart is racing like I'm on the run Yeah little darling wont you say you're gonna stay with me Oh little darling take it while were young Oh little darling we can have ourselves a life or fun And I wanna tell your momma And I wanna tell your daddy too Its just you for me girl And its just me for you Little darling your the only one My heart is racing like I'm on the run Yeah little darling wont you say you're gonna stay with me I'm gonna give you everything you need Just say the word and I'll be on my knees Oh little darling won't you say your gonna marry me
