The Rest of the Night Songtext

von Natalie Cole

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, yeah

Baby, what's your hurry?
Where are you goin' so fast?
You can keep your motor runnin'
But don't run out of gas

Getting there's half the fun
'Cause you've got the rest of the night to hold me
And the best of my love's yet to come
For the rest of my life I'm gonna love you
So take a little longer, my love can only get stronger

If we're gonna climb a mountain
We gotta take out sweet time
When you're traveling down love's highway
Don't you know speeding is a crime?

Listen, getting there's half the fun
'Cause you've got the rest of the night to hold me
And the best of my love's yet to come
For the rest of my life I'm gonna love you
So take a little longer, my love can only get stronger

Oh, my baby, we gotta slow down
Take your time, ease your mind
So stronger, rest of my life, I'm gonna love you
So just take a little longer and our love is gonna get stronger

'Cause you've got the rest of the night, oh yeah
And the best of my love yet to come
Oh, baby, for rest of my life, I'm gonna love you
I want you to take your time
Love me baby, love me baby, love me, love me

Slow down baby, I ain't goin' nowhere
So why don't we just take our sweet time
Don't rush me, you're gonna crush me, let the fever climb
Oh, remember that song about a slow hand, now she had the right idea

So, baby, what's the hurry? We've got forever
If we don't use it up too fast
Take it slow, calm down, smell the roses
We'll get there, don't you worry

Rest of the night, to hold me
Best of my love, yet to come
Rest of my life, love you
