Maybe Tonight
Turn out the light, my Love, it's the end of day
Don't turn your back on me, for tonight I want to play
Please listen carefully, I've something left to say
If you'll give your love to me, with you I'll always stay
I know it's a lot to ask, for you to think this way
All you want to do my love, is sleep the night away
I know you are so weary, from working for your pay
I, do, hear your message, my head's not made of clay
Still, I'm always hopeful, you'll meet me just halfway
If it does not happen, that is still okay
We'll try another time, my dove, you go hit the hay
I'll watch over you, my wife, until the light's first ray
I know I ask a lot, your nerves are near to fray
You are as a prize to me, I want you on display
I will be with you, my love, until we're old and gray
Think of me once in a while, and I will never stray
