When you are young, you think time will stand still,
I remember exactly how your feel.
But we’re here today and gone tomorrow,
Please, don’t hold so tight to the sorrow.
Sadness in your heart, will not remain,
Time will carry away all your pain.
Trust me, I have been there before,
Right after the slam of that door.
Life will go on, and you are strong,
Listen to the words of this song.
We’ve got tonight, who needs tomorrow,
Please, don’t hold so tight to the sorrow.
The sun will shine in the morn,
But right now your heart feels torn.
Cry if you must, but don’t give up the fight,
Don’t let your dreams fade from sight.
When you are young, you think time will stand still,
I know exactly how you feel.
Seems like yesterday, I was living full of sorrow,
But time took me into tomorrow.
The sun will shine in the morn,
Trust me, I too have felt torn.
Life will go on, and you are strong,
Listen to the words of this song.

Time will take away all your sorrow.

We've Got Tonight

I know it's late, I know you're weary
I know your plans don't include me
Still here we are both of us lonely
Longing for shelter from all that we see
Why should we worry, no one will care girl
Look at the stars so far away
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
Why don't we stay?
Deep in my soul, I've been so lonely
All of my hopes, fading away
I've longed for love, like everyone else does
I know I'll keep searching, after today
So there it is girl, I've got it all now
And here we are babe, what do you say?
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight babe
Why don't we stay?
I know it's late, I know you're weary
I know your plans don't include me
Still here we are, both of us lonely
Both of us lonely
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
Let's make it last, let's find a way
Turn off the light, come take my hand now
We've got tonight babe
Why don't we stay?
We've got tonight babe
Why don't we stay?
