Strollin' in the park Watchin' winter turn to spring Walkin' in the dark Seein' lovers do their thing That's the time I feel like making love to you That's the time I feel like making dreams come true When you talk to me When you're moanin' sweet & low When you touch me And my feelings start to show, show, oh That's the time I feel like making love to you That's the time I feel like making dreams come true That's the time I feel like making love to you That's the time I feel like making dreams come true In a restaurant Holdin' hands by candlelight Wanna touch you Wantin' you with all my might That's the time I feel like making love to you That's the time I feel like making dreams come true That's the time I feel like making love to you That's the time I feel like making dreams come true
