["Paul woke up at 3:00 A.M. with this churning through his head. Pat came
over the next day, figured out an arrangement, and fixed Paul's garage
door."]
What's it gonna be babe, shivers down my spine
Swim on to your island, is the treasure mine?
Send me out an answer, tell me something real
Chorus:
What's it gonna be baby, what's it gonna be
Why's it have to be so hard to win your sympathy
What's it gonna be baby, what's it gonna be
You're takin' your time makin' up your mind
But you've been makin' time with me, yeah
How's it gonna feel babe, your back's against the wall
Close your eyes and feel your body start to fall
Tell me a little answer, whoa
What's it gonna be baby, what's it gonna be
What's it gonna take to see the possibilities
What's it gonna be baby, what's it gonna be
You're takin' your time makin' up your mind
But you've been makin' time with me, yeah
(Solo)
Send me out an answer, tell me how you feel
Move a little closer, give me something real
Put ya in my pocket, keep ya for a day
Let the good doctor take you away
(chorus)
C'mon baby! Yeah!
(Solo)
