I'm playing my cards on the table no secrets,
no sense of direction its tough, baby,
it's no party I said something I lost a connection
And it's all I can do to forget about you
loving you is such a fascination
'cause I've loved you so long
and my love is so strong
but you know a certain party's missing
I'll sit by the window
now you sit anywhere that you want to
sitting in the sunshine now we're hoping,
as we're supposed to do
If I get down on my knees
would you forgive me, please
its only that my heart is aching
and it's all over you not a thing
I can do little pieces of my world are falling,
it's a good night
"Goodnight, Mr. Matthews.. now, no talking ..
the others are sleeping, there's always tomorrow ...."
.. better come back soon '
Cause I love only you
no other will do
loving you is such a fascination
and I've told you before
only you know the score
but you know a certain part is missing
if I go down on my knees
would you forgive me, please
it's only that my heart is breaking
but it's a very temporary thing
it just happens all the time
little pieces of my world are falling,
it's a good night
