Lyrics
Whoa, oh, well, well, well
Well, well, oh, hmm
Someone to count on in a world of change
Here I am, stop where you’re standin’
What you need is a lover, a man to take over
Oh girl, don’t look any further
Strange, when you think of the chances
That we’d both be in a state of mind
Too cool to be careless, lookin’ for the right thing
Oh baby, don’t look any further
Tonight, tonight, we’re gonna taste a little, paradise
Rock you all night long, baby all night long
Daylight, daylight
I’ll still be lookin’ in your ebony eyes
And we’ll go on and on, and on
Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o, well
Don’t look any further
Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o, well
Don’t look any further
Someone to count on in a world of changin’
Here I am, stop where you’re standin’
What you need is a lover, you need a lover
To love you all over, love me all over
Oh baby, don’t you look any further, further
Don’t look any further, don’t look any further
Tonight, tonight, we’re gonna taste a little, paradise
Rock you all night long, rock you all night long
Daylight, daylight
I’ll still be lookin’ in your ebony eyes
And we’ll go on and on, and on
Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o, say it
Don’t look any further
Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o, well
Don’t look any further, don’t you ever look
Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o
Don’t look any further, further
Day-o day-o, mombajee ai-o
Don’t look any further, further
Dayo day-o, mombajee ai-o
Don’t look any further
