Song Lyrics

Yeah, this is your love song baby
This is the part where I must confess
You're looking good in that pretty dress
Consider this fair warning
It's getting kinda hard to say goodnight
Underneath the porch light

Now I'm not saying it sink or swim
Yeah, but I've already jumped in

'Cause tonight's not the night
To play it safe or take it easy
Or waste anymore precious time
No, tonight's not the night
To watch you get in your car and leave me
No, tonight's not the night for goodbye

Sometimes it's not easy
Sometimes love can scare you half to death
But I'll give it my best
Yeah, we'll find a way to make it
Who says we've got to do it their way
Baby what do you say?

'Cause tonight's not the night
To play it safe or take it easy
Or waste anymore precious time
No, tonight's not the night
To watch you get in your car and leave me
No, tonight's not the night for goodbye

Now it's a long way home
Yeah, you got no reason to go
Why don't you stay, stay?

No, tonight's not the night
To watch you get in your car and leave me
No, tonight's not the night for goodbye
No, tonight's not the night for goodbye

No, tonight's not the night
Yeah, the night for goodbye
Yeah, tonight's not the night
Yeah, the night for goodbye
Yeah, the night for goodbye
