Hey pretty girl, what's your name?
Looks like we're on the same page tonight
What's the story, what's his name?
Looks like you're in some pain, am I right?
Just like you, I can't escape
But I could use a night away from an empty home
And the hurt from it all
If only for tonight, girl
We treat each other right, girl
Like no one ever has
Like nothing from the past
Be on each other's side, girl
Forget about real life
Make everything alright
If only for tonight
What kind of man would treat you wrong?
We could talk all night long but
Your eyes make it clear
Finish off the drink you have
Don't worry girl, it's on my tab
Let's get out of here
Leave the phone and hit the lights
It feels so good to feel alive
Or to feel anything at all
If only for tonight, girl
We treat each other right, girl
Like no one ever has
Like nothing from the past
Be on each other's side, girl
Forget about real life
Make everything alright
If only for tonight
Ohh... oooh...
It's nice to know we're not alone
Don't gotta do this on our own
It'll take some time to get there
There's more to life than what we have
Moving on ain't so bad if it's gonna feel like this
Even if it's only for tonight, girl
We treat each other right, girl
Like no one ever has
Like nothing from the past
Be on each other's side, girl
Forget about real life
Make everything alright
If only for tonight, yeah
Forget about real life
Make everything alright
If only for tonight
Hey pretty girl, what's your name?
Looks like we're on the same page tonight
