Not Tonight

Everytime you take my hand
try to understand
what it all does to me
can't you see?
I don't think anyone can say
that they know everything about anything like you and me
so please don't leave

It might be better to be alone
now and then
but not tonight
let me know
let me know
that you care

Maybe I'll try to let you go
Maybe I'll try to let you go

But not tonight
I need you so
I need you so
it's not fair

Maybe I'll try to let you go
Maybe I'll try to let you go

Look at me, look at you
what's wrong?
'cause I feel like such a fool
such a fool
Do we really feel the same
because you're running away all the time
So it's hard to say
why can't you stay

I should be happy here on my own
but I'm not

But not tonight
let me know
let me know
that you care

Maybe I'll try to let you go
Maybe I'll try to let you go

But not tonight

I need you so
I need you so
it's not fair

Maybe I'll try to let you go
Maybe I'll try to let you go

Why do you always have to run away from me
is it really so hard to be here
and leave me all by myself
and leave me all by myself
do you ever really really think about me
you should know that I don't want to live like this
'cause I can't be by myself
I can't be by myself

Not tonight
let me know
let me know
that you care

Maybe I'll try to let you go
Maybe I'll try to let you go

But not tonight
I need you so
I need you so
it's not fair

Maybe I'll try to let you go
Maybe I'll try to let you go

But not tonight
let me know
let me know
that you care

Maybe I'll try to let you go
Maybe I'll try to let you go

But not tonight
I need you so
I need you so
it's not fair

Maybe I'll try to let you go
Maybe I'll try to let you go
