[English]

Lately, I'm so tired

If I took it all out on you

I never meant to

If I left you outside

If you ever felt I'd ignored you

No, my life is all you

So, put your best dress on

And wrap yourself in the arms of someone

Who wants to give you all the love you want

Tonight, I'm gonna make it up to you

Tonight, I'm gonna make love to you

Tonight, you're gonna know how much I missed you, baby

Tonight, I dedicate my heart to you

Tonight, I'm gonna be a part of you

Tonight, you're gonna know how much I miss you

And I miss you so

I don't wanna act like

I know that you'd be mine forever

Though I hope it's forever

Don't want you to feel like

I take you for granted

Whenever, we are together

So, put your best dress on

And wrap yourself in the arms of someone

Who wants to give you all the love you want

Tonight, I'm gonna make it up to you

Tonight, I'm gonna make love to you

Tonight, you're gonna know how much I missed you, baby

Tonight, I dedicate my heart to you

Tonight, I'm gonna be a part of you

Tonight, you're gonna know how much I miss you

And I miss you so

Oh, yeah

So, put your best dress on

Wrap yourself in my arms, my love

Tonight, I'm gonna make it up to you

Tonight, I'm gonna make love to you

Tonight, you're gonna know how much I miss you, baby

Tonight, I dedicate my heart to you

Tonight, I'm gonna be a part of you

Tonight, you're gonna know how much I miss you, baby

Tonight, I'm gonna make it up to you

Tonight, I'm gonna make love to you

Tonight (oh, no), you're gonna know how much I miss you, baby

Tonight, I dedicate my heart to you

Tonight, I'm gonna be a part of you

Tonight, you're gonna know how much I miss you

And I miss you so
