Lyrics:
What would I have to do
To get you to notice me too?
Do I stand in line?
One of a million admiring eyes
Walk a tightrope way up high
Write your name across the sky?
I'm going crazy, just to let you know
You'd be amazed how much I love you so, oh baby
When get my hands on you, I won't let go
This time, I know it's for real
Should I write or call your home?
Shout it out with a megaphone?
The radio, TV news
Got to find a way to get the message to you
To say, I love you, with a neon sign
Anything to make you mine
I'm going crazy, just to let you know
If I wait too long for you, I might explode, oh baby
I've been around the block enough to know
This time, I know it's for real
Ooh, baby
This time
This time
This time, this time
Oh, baby
This time, this time
Oh, baby
Walk a tightrope way up high
Write your name across the sky
I'm going crazy, just to let you know
You'd be amazed how much I love you so, baby
When get my hands on you, I won't let go
This time, I know it's for real
I'm going crazy, just to let you know
If I wait too long for you, I might explode, baby
I've been around the block enough to know
This time, I know it's for real

I’m your exact age. At “this time” Donna had been out of the limelight for several years. I grew up with her and loved her voice in the Disco era. Then to hear this new hit come out years later and to realize she could still blow the current singers out of the water was incredible! Love you, Miss D!

I am 61 years old and heard this song at JFK International Airport the other day on the intercom at 1:00 a.m. coming back from Istanbul, Turkey heading to Alaska... The song reverberated in my head all the way back home. Now I realize that most of the best voices and talents ae in the past..... fast forward to today's "artists" .. NO comparison.

I prefer the earlier stuff to the Stock -Aiken-Waterman sound, but to each his own. This song reminds me of clubbing with my mates. Saw her live in 1979, I think, and it was amazing!

The emotions this song brings with it during a very difficult time but also super fond memories. This song swept the gay clubs during the AIDS crisis and I lost many friends and a partner. It’s hard not to cry a bit but still smile from the friendships that have stood the test of time. And somehow I’m still here. IMO one of Donna Summer’s strongest club songs. Has so much meaning attached to it.

[@edreid7872]

Thank you for sharing as I feel the same with many songs going back to 1980, the year I came out.. Every song reminds me of someone I have lost as well.. Sometimes it's hard to listen to them.. And by the grace of God, I survived as well..🥲

She was a high soprano opera singer, I was one for 2 years that's why her vocals are spot on! Wish I went into pop, but am happy that I earned this honor, no fear, now I have so many accomplishments. There are people who will tell you not to try, insecure people are cowards.
