Alright, let's kick off in true superstar fashion. Chances are you weren't able to shut yourself entirely from the multi-nation multi-million TV über-show Pop Idol and its various exported versions which swept the world from 2002, so you'll know that it's a complex adoration-identification-support-singalong affair, with most revenue going to the producers, songwriters, and Simon Fuller, the guy who invented it all.
In Germany, the format didn't fail, to say the least. In the final episode, both remaining contestants performed the specially engineered song Take Me Tonight, and basically the winner performance at the end was the blueprint for this interpretation. Evidently, it seems that poor Alex was a little overwhelmed and got some of the lyrics wrong - at least some passages are mumbledly strange in his live performance, something which I of course conveyed, since I didn't have an official lyric sheet anyway (the single wasn't even released yet when I recorded it).
I couldn't leave the song in its sugary coating, so I simply converted it to minor - and I think that when the song's performed that way, it might even take on a new, hidden, somber meaning. Anyway, you'll see when you listen to it. Have some super fun.

lyrics/chords/etc.

Oh Baby; When I look into your eyes, feels good to me; When I feel in paradise, like fantasy; Baby you're my angel, my guardian angel
Oh memories; I feel it in my heart, I feel it in my soul; We'll never ever fall apart, don't let me go; Baby you're my angel, and you know that time will show
Take me tonight; Anything is possible; Time's on my side; The world is beautiful; I'll take my chance; Then make my dreams come true; Tell me you're mine; Oh babe don't make me blue; And I know for sure; I will never let you go
Oh memories; If we can't be lovers, let me be a friend; Take me in your lonely arms, don't let it end; Baby you're my angel, my guardian angel
I'll be there; If we can't be lovers, let me be a friend; You're always in my heart, oh baby let it end; Oh I'm your angel, and you know that time will show
Take me tonight; Anything is possible; Time's on my side; The world is beautiful; I'll take my chance; My babe don't make me blue; Tell me you're mine; Oh babe don't make me blue; And I know for sure; I will never let you go
Take me tonight; Anything is possible; Time's on my side; The world is beautiful; I'll take my chance; My dreams are coming true; Tell me you're mine; Oh babe don't make me blue; And I know for sure; I will never let you go
