Steal Away
[Intro]
(Steal away
Steal away)

[Verse 1]
Ooh, I gotta see you somehow
Not tomorrow, but right now
I know it's late, but, honey, I can't wait
So come on steal away
Please, steal away

[Verse 2]
Now, don't start thinking tryin' to make up your mind
Everybody's sleepin' so let's not waste no time
I know it's late but I can't wait
So, come on steal away
Baby, baby, steal away

[Bridge]
I know it's wrong askin' this of you
But there's no other way I can be with you
If other folks (Other folks), if they was cool (they was cool)
Things like this we wouldn't have to do

[Verse 3]
Ooh, I won't tell, tell nobody else
I wanna keep it, I'll keep it to myself
I know it's late, but, baby, I can't wait
So, come on and steal away
Oh, baby, steal away (Steal away, steal away, steal away)
[Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 4]
Ooh, I won't tell nobody else
I'd like to keep it, I'll keep it to myself
I know it's late, but I can't wait
Baby, baby, steal away
Oh, honey, steal away

[Outro]
You know that I need you, baby (You got to steal away)
I just gotta see you, baby (We got to steal away)
Can't keep from thinkin' about you (We got to steal away)
I'm just too lonely without you (We got to steal away)
Steal away (We got to steal away)
Oh baby (We got to steal away)
Need you, baby (We got to steal away)
Come on (We got to steal away)
Can't you steal away right now? (We got to steal away)
Right now (We got to steal away)
