Original Sonny West version
The little things you say and do
They make me want to be with you
Rave on, it's a crazy feeling
And I know it's got me reeling
When you say I love you, rave on
Well the way you dance and hold me tight
The way you kiss and say goodnight
Rave on, it's a crazy feeling
And I know it's got me reeling
When you say I love you, rave on
Well rave on, it's a crazy feeling
And I know it's got me reeling
I'm so glad that you're revealing your love for me
Rave on, rave on and tell me
Tell me not to be lonely
Tell me you love me only, rave on to me
Well rave on, it's a crazy feeling
And I know it's got me reeling
I'm so glad that you're revealing your love for me
Rave on, rave on and tell me
Tell me not to be lonely
Tell me you love me only, rave on to me
Well rave on, it's a crazy feeling
And I know it's got me reeling
I'm so glad that you're revealing your love for me
Rave on, rave on and tell me
Tell me not to be lonely
Tell me you love me only, rave on to me
Rave on, rave on
