This Night Won’t Last Forever
Artist: 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.
Chorus:
I know this night won’t last forever
I know the sun’s got to 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
Chorus:
I know this night won’t last forever
I know the sun’s got to shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
To show this heart is gonna mend just fine
Bridge:
Such a ridiculous situation
Pretending there’s nothing wrong
She’s comin’ on with the invitation
I wonder who is takin’ her home
Chorus:
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
(Repeat and fade)
