[Verse 1] Oh baby, you know I hate to beg And I really hate to rush you, girl We've been knowin' each other for so long And I really think it's time to let go, baby Oh baby, don't you feel my heart? It's missing some excitement, and you're the missing part You're the missing part That can heal my lonely nights You're the missing part That makes my day so bright Can we be lovers? [Chorus] Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? You're the only one I need in my life Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? [Bridge] Can't you feel my love, it's calling you (It's calling you) To a romantic rendezvous (Rendezvous) I believe every heart wants to feel real love I don't think true love is a mystery, it's right here for you [Chorus] Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? [Verse 2] Please be careful, baby, how you talk to me 'Cause I have a fragile heart and it's broken easily And if it's broken I may never love again And it will be so sad, sweet darling To live without my friend [Bridge] Can't you feel my love, hey, it's calling you, baby To a romantic rendezvous (Rendezvous) Well, each and every heart wants to feel real, real love I want you to know that my love is here for you See let me in your heart You're the only one I want In my life, in my life In my life, in my life tonight [Chorus] Can we be lovers? (Aw baby) Can we be lovers? (Aw baby) You're the only one I need Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? You're the only one I need Can we be lovers? (Can we be lovers) Can we be lovers? (Well) Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? (I want you so much) You're the only one I need Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? You're the only one I need Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? Can we be lovers? You're the only one I need You're the only one I need
