Song Lyrics

Girl, I recognize the smoke in your eyes
I've seen it in mine too
We both had been burned, hard lessons learned
From making some bad moves

We keep looking for the perfect time and place
Good things don't always come to those who wait
Sometimes you got to make your own fate

If there ever was a moment that felt so right
This is one tonight
If there ever was a reason to hold on tight
This is one tonight

We've been beatin' 'round the bush
We've been bidin' our time
We've been searching the skies
For a heavenly sign

But if you're looking for a love
That's the keepin' kind
This one tonight

I've spent too many nights
Wishing that I could say what I'm saying
Moments like this should be lost in a kiss
And not in debating

We got nothing to lose but precious time
Sooner or later gotta lay it on the line
Roll the dice and put your hand in mine

If there ever was a moment that felt so right
This is one tonight
If there ever was a reason to hold on tight
This is one tonight

We've been beatin' 'round the bush
We've been bidin' our time
We've been searching the skies
For a heavenly sign

But if you're looking for a love
That's the keepin' kind
This is one tonight

We've been beatin' 'round the bush
We've been bidin' our time
We've been searching the skies
For a heavenly sign

But if you're looking for a love
That's the keepin' kind
This is one tonight, this is one tonight
