Now when I was a young girl my dad warned me about the opposite sex
He'd say, "Yeah, that's just what you need some crazy boy with wild ideas
You know what always happens next"
I tried to heed his advice but now I'm thinkin' it sounds kinda niceIt's just what I need on a night like this
A long walk in the dark, someone I can't resist
A little rendezvous, a little mystery
Now when I look at you, I think that's just what I needNow my momma told me in this dog-eat-dog world, baby
You gotta work harder than a man
She'd say, "Yeah that's just what you need
Some romance book Romeo callin' you at work and messin' up your plans"
Night falls, I slow down, I start dreamin' of you comin' aroundIt's just what I need on a night like this
A long walk in the dark, someone I can't resist
A little rendezvous, a little mystery
Now when I look at you, I think that's just what I needMoonlight, sweet bliss, melting with every kiss
Dancin' real slow when you hold me close I knowIt's just what I need on a night like this
A long walk in the dark, someone I can't resist
A little rendezvous, a little mystery
Now when I look at you, I think that's just what I need, yeah(Just, just what I need)
Oh it's just what I need
(Just, just what I need)
Yeah that's just what I need
(Just, just what I need)
Yeah, yeah
(Just, just what I need)
(Just, just what I need)
