The Sweet - I Don't Wanna Say Goodnight lyrics

rate me

Standing on the edge of night

The crowds have all gone home

We both know when darkness falls

We'll be here on our own

There comes a time when silence speaks your mind

And now I realise what I'm not saying

Oh I don't want to say goodnight

And I want to get this right

Cause there's nothing good about goodbye

I don't want to say goodnight

There's something I can't find

Cause when all is said and done

I don't want to say goodnight

So many times the words get in the way

And now just listen to what I'm not saying

Oh I don't want to say goodnight

And I want to get this right

Cause there's nothing good about goodbye

I don't want to say goodnight

There's something I can't find

Cause when all is said and done

I don't want to say goodnight

This ship will be sailing

Yes we'll be staying

Oh what were not saying tonight

All the sweetest, all the deepest

Words on high

Oh I don't want to say goodnight

And I want to get this right

Cause there's nothing good about goodbye

I don't want to say goodnight

There's something I can't find

Cause when all is said and done

I don't want to say goodnight
