Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Before I let you go, before I let you go

Can I get a kiss goodnight, baby?

Before I let you go, before I let you go

Can I get a kiss goodnight, baby?

Before I let you go, before I let you go

Can I get a kiss goodnight, baby?

Before I let you go, before I let you go

Can I get a kiss goodnight, baby?

[Verse 2]

Lately I've been thinkin'

Something's going wrong

'Cause you've got an attitude

And you're not in the mood

Like you used to

[Verse 3]

Girl, I can feel it

When I hold you in my arms

The feeling is not the same

Can I be the one to blame?

I don't wanna lose your love

I don't wanna say bye-bye

Oh no no

[Verse 4]

True love is so hard to find

And it's right between your lips

And mine

And mine

Before I let go

[Verse 5]

Before I let you go away

Can I get a kiss goodnight?

Before I let you go away

Can I get a kiss goodnight?

[Verse 6]

Turn the lights down low

Let's take it nice and slow

My mission is to keep you mine

Don't want this to be the last time

[Verse 7]

We make sweet love, baby

I know you feel it, too

It's bigger than the both of us

There's one thing I'm so certain of

I don't wanna lose your love

(Don't wanna lose ya)

I don't wanna say bye-bye

(Don't wanna lose ya)

It's always the little things

I remember and I can't just let chip away

Slip away

[Verse 8]

Before I let you go away

Can I get a kiss goodnight?

Before I let you go away

Can I get a kiss goodnight?

[Verse 9]

Teddy, won't you play the music for me

Teddy, won't you play Blackstreet, say ?

(Don't wanna lose ya)

Baby, I get so lonely sometimes, I

(Don't wanna lose ya)

Baby, my heart is broken sometimes

I need you right now, I don't

(Don't wanna lose ya)

I can't let you slip away

Slip away

Before I let go

[Verse 10]

Before I let you go away

Can I get a kiss goodnight?

Before I let you go away

Can I get a kiss goodnight?

[Verse 11]

Before I let you go, before I let you go

Can I get a kiss goodnight, baby?

Before I let you go, before I let you go

Can I get a kiss goodnight, baby?

Before I let you go, before I let you go

Can I get a kiss goodnight, baby?

Before I let you go, before I let you go

Can I get a kiss goodnight, baby?

[Verse 12]

I don't wanna lose your sweet love

So don't say good-bye, say good night
