Goodhands Tonight - Al Jarreau

O my goodness!

Ugh, ugh, ugh!

Try me!

Upset me this time of the mornin'!

]

Hmmm!

I guess you got my letter

Hmmm!

Well every word I said was true

But just in case your postman breaks a leg

I thought I’d get another message off to you

Hmmm!

I settled down in Paris

Hmmm!

I get to love them weekends too

I’d like to pitch a tent by your back fence

And yell and scream all night this message overdue:

«I'd just like to hold you, enfold you and make it right

But it’s nice to know you are in good hands tonight»

Oops!

Hmm!

I never had good timing

Hmmm!

I’m late again, that’s why you’re through

But please ignore the time, enjoy the ride, girl

And let the meaning and the message sing to you:

«I'd just like to hold you, enfold you and make it right

But it’s nice to know you are in good hands tonight, yes»

Do I seem alright?

S’pose I’ll be alright

'Specially when the sky is so blue

But if she’s sad of eyes with deep blue sighs

Let me sing this song again just like it’s new

Oooh!

Well baby, here’s my final letter

Hmmm!

But perhaps that’s really not quite true

Woa!

'Cause if your friend was right and you really called last night

To ask the question could my message mean 'I do'

«I'd just like to hold you, enfold you and make it right

But it’s nice to know you are in good hands tonight»
