Billy Joel — This Night

[Verse 1] Didn't I say I wasn't ready for romance? Didn't we promise we would only be friends? And so we danced, though it was only a slow dance I started breaking my promises right there and then Didn't I swear there would be no complications? Didn't you want someone who's seen it all before? Now that you're here, it's not the same situation Suddenly, I don't remember the rules anymore [Chorus] This night is mine It's only you and I Tomorrow is a long time away This night can last forever [Verse 2] I've been around, someone like me should know better Falling in love would be the worst thing I could do Didn't I say I needed time to forget her? Aren't you running from someone who's not over you? How many nights have I been lonely without you? I tell myself how much I really don't care How many nights have I been thinking about you? Wanting to hold you but knowing you would not be there [Chorus] This night, you're mine It's only you and I I'll tell you to forget yesterday This night we are together This night is mine It's only you and I Tomorrow is such a long time away This night can last forever [Outro] Tomorrow is such a long time away This night can last forever
