About the song:
A mellow love song with sensuous and somewhat explicit lyrics and a strong country pop styling, “Feels So Right” was also Alabama’s first crossover hit, performing modestly well on CHR and Top 40 radio stations. The song peaked at No. 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the summer of 1981, and became their first of five top 10 hits on the adult contemporary chart. On the country chart, the song has the distinction of becoming the first No. 1 song to drop directly out of the top 40 since the inception of the 100-position chart, falling to No. 43 for the chart week of August 1, 1981.
The pop “love ballad” style evident on “Feels So Right” , along with the country rock style of its other songs, became the cornerstone of Alabama’s sound throughout the 1980s and 1990s. Today, it remains one of Alabama’s most popular songs.

Alabama – Feels So Right Lyrics

Whisper to me softly, breathe words upon my skin
No one’s near and listening, so please don’t say goodbye
Just hold me close and love me, press your lips to mine
Mmm feels so right. Feels so right.
Lying here beside you I hear the echoes of your sighs
Promise me you’ll stay with me and keep me warm tonight
So hold me close and love me, give my heart a smile
Mmm feels so right. Feels so right.
Your body feels so gentle and my passion rises high
You’re loving me so easy, you’re wish is my command
Just hold me close and love me, tell me it won’t end
Mmm feels so right. Feels so right.
Feels so right.
Ah, you feel so right baby….
