Steel Magnolia - Not Tonight lyrics

rate me

If I were stronger I'd just let you leave

You'd say it's over and I would just agree

Then I'd tell you I wish you the best, I really do

You deserve happiness, I can't give you what you need

You can leave, just not tonight

I'm not ready to lay this down

I'm too stubborn to quit you now

There's a voice somewhere deep inside of my mind

Saying it's too soon to let you go tonight

I'm in no hurry to hear goodbye

Why can't it wait till the morning light?

We can come undone some other time

Just not tonight

Before the stars go out, before we disappear

Let me hold you now, rest your head, right here

But I can't live without you to make your love come back

What can I say to make you stop

Here in your tracks, I know you're staring at the wrong way, as tonight

I'm not ready to lay this down

I'm too stubborn to quit you now

There's a voice somewhere deep inside of my mind

Saying it's too soon to let you go tonight

I'm in no hurry to hear goodbye

Why can't it wait till the morning light?

We can come undone some other time

Just not tonight

Not tonight

I'm not ready to lay this down

I'm too stubborn to quit you now

There's a voice somewhere deep inside of my mind

Saying it's too soon to let you go tonight

I'm in no hurry to hear goodbye

Why can't it wait till the morning light?

We can come undone some other time

Just not tonight

Not tonight

Just not tonight

If I were stronger I'd just let you leave

You'd say it's over and I would just agree
