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  Now I'm thinkin' it sounds kinda nice    It'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  When I look at you I think that's just what I need    Now my momma told me in this dog-eat-dog world  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' around    It'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  When I look at you I think that's just what I need    Moonlight, sweet bliss  Melting with every kiss  Dancin' real slow  When you hold me close I know    It'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  When I look at you I think that's just what I need    Just what I need  Just what I need  Oh yeah
