save tonight

American Authors

Go on and close the curtains
Cause all we need is candlelight
You and me and a bottle of wine
To hold you tonight
Well, we know I m going away
And how I wish, I wish it weren t so
So, take this wine, and drink with me
And let s delay our misery

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow, I ll be gone
Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow, I ll be gone

There s a log on the fire
And it burns like me for you
Tomorrow comes with one desire
To take me away, oh, it s true
It ain t easy to say goodbye
Darling, please don t start to cry
Cause, girl, you know I ve got to go
And, Lord, I wish it wasn t so

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I ll be gone
Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I ll be gone

Tomorrow comes to take me away
I wish that I, that I could stay
But girl, you know I ve got to go
And, Lord, I wish it wasn t so

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I ll be gone
Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I ll be gone
