Gonna Be A Beautiful Night - Phonte, Carlitta Durand

And I can tell by the look in your eyes

It’s gonna be a beautiful night

I said it’s gonna be a beautiful night, baby doll, baby doll

And I can tell by the way that you’re looking at me

That it’s gonna be a beautiful night

I said it’s gonna be a beautiful night, baby doll, baby doll

All of my life I’ve waited for a love to call my own

Can’t explain how it feels, but I like, I like it, yes I do

Of all the places in the world that I could call my home

There’s nowhere else I would be but beside you, just lying with you

I used to be a lonely girl, until I found you

And then you became my world, always think of you

Oh, I’m so excited

I don’t want to fight it, no

Just take me in your arms tonight

My friends, your friends, always got their eye on me

Always tryin' to spy on me, outlook narrow

They’re like crabs in a barrel or like ants in a colony

They front, but I’m thinkin' lakefront property

So that we can be properly, get a slice of life

I’ll be there with you, share with you

Make sure you got a piece of mind to recline from the fighting and the arguing

Teetering and tottering, just waiting for the fall

Spend all night waiting for your call

Would have called first, but I ain’t want you to think a nigga soft

Fuck it, I guess you proved me wrong

I guess you know the reason why I put you in this song

Because you are my melody, I mean my inner song

A sunray of light that let’s me know the winter’s gone

Ain’t no anger when I’m tangled in your hair girl

Skip the bojangling, just be my Lena Horne

It’s so good to have you back where you belong

Right here, in my arms

You know what I’m sayin'
