Tonight's the Night (Gonna Be Alright) Lyrics
Stay away from my window
Stay away from my back door too
Disconnect the telephone line
Relax baby and draw that blind
Kick off your shoes, and sit right down
Loosen up that pretty french gown
Let me pour you a good long drink
Ooh, baby don't you hesitate, cos
Tonight's the night
It's gonna be alright
Cos I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
C'mon angel, my hearts on fire
Don't deny your man's desire
You'd be a fool to stop this tide
Spread your wings and let me come inside, cos
Tonight's the night
It's gonna be alright
Cos I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
(tonight's the night, tonight's the night, tonight's the night)
Don't say a word, my virgin child
Just let your inhibitions run wild
The secret is about to unfold
Upstairs before the night's to old, cos
Tonight's the night (tonight's the night)
It's gonna be alright
Cos I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now (tonight, tonight's the night)
Tonight's the night (tonight's the night)
It's gonna be alright (tonight's the night)
Cos I love you boy
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
This is so special
Tonight's the night
Don't be afraid
Tonight's the night
Don't be afraid
Tonight's the night
Don't be afraid
I wanna make things alright
Tonight's the night
Don't be afraid
*Repeat and fade
Stay away from my back door too
Disconnect the telephone line
Relax baby and draw that blind
Kick off your shoes, and sit right down
Loosen up that pretty french gown
Let me pour you a good long drink
Ooh, baby don't you hesitate, cos
It's gonna be alright
Cos I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
Don't deny your man's desire
You'd be a fool to stop this tide
Spread your wings and let me come inside, cos
It's gonna be alright
Cos I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
(tonight's the night, tonight's the night, tonight's the night)
Just let your inhibitions run wild
The secret is about to unfold
Upstairs before the night's to old, cos
It's gonna be alright
Cos I love you girl
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now (tonight, tonight's the night)
It's gonna be alright (tonight's the night)
Cos I love you boy
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
Tonight's the night
Don't be afraid
Tonight's the night
Don't be afraid
Tonight's the night
Don't be afraid
I wanna make things alright
Tonight's the night
Don't be afraid

First of all, this is not about a threesome. When she says "this is just between me [the singer] and you, and you. [the couple]" I love the alternations between gender, I think it makes the song very general in regards of the person listening to it, although she's singing more from a man's perspective.
Secondly, this is lightyears better than Rod's version.
& this song is beyond gorgeous. :)
This song is about a threesome
I like this song's soft and sweet melody.
I don't know if she ripped this off of rod stewart or vice versa, but his version is much better IMO.
She didn't rip Rod Stewart off, she just turned an already controversial song (Rod's version is banned in England) into an even more controversial one.
