Just For Tonight

I know it's bittersweet
You being here with me
Tonight,let's laugh and dance and love
For tomorrow when the sun comes up 
We'll be in the arms of another
Its too cliche to say 
that it's fate that fell short
For the truth is that we fool ourselves 
Thinking this is more
So let's drink and laugh and make love! 
For when the moon no longer shines 
It'll all just be a  memory
That for just one moment 
I was yours and you, were also mine
