This Night Won't Last Forever
Michael Johnson
Everybody likes a celebration, happy music and conversation
But I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have the blues
In the corner there's a couple dancin', from the kitchen I can hear her laughin'
Oh I - wish I was celebratin' too
I know this night won't last forever
I know the Sun's gonna shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
To show this heart is gonna mend just fine
So pardon me for my disposition, wish I didn't have to sit and listen
She's playin' the same old songs on the stereo
She's been lyin' since the day I met her, I'd be better off to just forget her
Oh I - would rather be lonesome or go
I know this night won't last forever
I know the Sun's gonna shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
To show this heart is gonna mend just fine
Such a ridiculous situation pretending there's nothing wrong
She's comin' on with the invitation I wonder who is takin' her home
I know this night won't last forever
I know the Sun's gonna shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
To show this heart is gonna mend just fine
