Down Tonight

lyrics

DOWN TONIGHT

I wore the shirt that you wanted
The tie you picked out and liked so well
Does my hair look all right?
Swell
This party must be important
So I’ll try with all my might
Don’t want to disappoint you
Don’t want to let you down tonight

Chorus:
Babe you’re a lot like Heaven
But this is a lot like Hell
Trying to give you everything you wanted
Without lying to myself
And babe you’re a lot like a jacket
That I put on to stay warm
But I’ll take you off when I feel
The rays of the sun and their warmth

Bathroom light in the mirror
Shines on your bedroom wall
Tonight you want to feel special
But special ain’t in the cards
Your touch has never felt better
Your passion outshines mine
And I’d never do anything to hurt you baby
And I won’t start tonight

Chorus

Yeah I’ll take you off when I feel
The rays of the sun and their warmth
