[Verse 1]
I remember how it started
On a sunny summer's day
I was looking out my window
All the kids were out to play
Then she said, "Hey, let's play May I" (Ba-ba-ba-ba)
Out into the street, I came (Ba-ba-ba-ba)
Ever since that sunny morning (Ba-ba-ba-ba)
Nothing has been quite the same

[Chorus]
May I take a giant step into your heart?
May I give you love and sweet affection?
May I take a giant step into your heart
So that you will look in my direction?
May I take a giant step into your heart?

[Verse 2]
Though I may be getting older (Ba-ba-ba-ba)
May I's still my favorite game (Ba-ba-ba-ba)
Girl, I got to have your permission (Ba-ba-ba-ba)
If our need's to be the same
Show me if you really want me (Ba-ba-ba-ba)
Show me if you really care (Ba-ba-ba-ba)
Give me just a little sign, girl (Ba-ba-ba-ba)
Make me feel you want me here
[Chorus]
May I take a giant step into your heart?
May I give you love and sweet affection?
May I take a giant step into your heart
So that you will look in my direction?
May I take a giant step into your heart?

[Organ Solo]

[Chorus]
May I take a giant step into your heart?
May I give you love and sweet affection?
May I take a giant step into your heart
So that you will look in my direction?
May I take a giant step into your heart?
May I give you love and sweet affection?
May I take a giant step into your heart
So that you will
