Just Tonight

In the darkness of the night 
The way the light caught your eyes
Everything you said sounded right
But I recognized your lies 

My body and my heart were at war
But there was no resisting the allure
Come home with me
My heart can wait
Envelope me cuz I need a taste 

Ain't felt no warmth since he been gone
So give me tonight
But be gone in the mornin 

Let the light of the dawn
Wake you and carry you home
Be gone in the mornin
