Lyrics

One Night

I've been alone for a second

Another year has come and gone

Thought I would call you and check in

See if you could found where you might belong

Over and over, I'm sleepless

Some kind of war zone in my head

We were so young and reckless

Down every hallway, another bed

One night and everythin' changes, I know

Back to the back of the line, I go

One night and your invitation, revoked

One night stop and say hello

Resentin' the ones we depend on

But was I a steady hand to hold?

What other note could it end on?

I nevеr knew I could be so cold

Losin' our minds just a little

How can you not in a fragile world?

You had mе square in the middle

Between a bad dream and a careless girl

One night, and everthin' changes, I know

Back to the back through the line, I go

One night, and your invitation, revoked

One night, stop and say hello

You're lost, in bed when you turn out the lights

Perhaps you will dream tonight (ooh)

The games you play, a voice, you find

It all okay, if I'm alright

It's fault that you fearin' the bark and the bite

Tell me, where you can turn back time?

Before the day you gave up the right

To change my ways, to all my lies

One night, and everthin' changes, I know

Back to the back of the line, I go

One night, and never look up and I go

One night, stop and say hello

One night, and everthin' changes, I know

Back to the back through the line, I go

One night, and your invitation, revoked

One night, stop and say hello

Father, teach me to forget

Father, teach me to forget

All the time, all I need is you

Father, teach me to forget

Father, teach me to forget

I thought you'd lie, there's no stoppin' you
