The night is dark and the party’s over
So come on the levee and be my lover
I know you’re gone in the morning light
But I’m gonna love you all through the night
Tomorrow you’re driving away
But I’ll get you back in my arms someday I pray
So play that pedal steel sweet
Play it lonely only for me
Kiss me once before you go
Tonight you’re the only thing that I want to know
So soft and sweet
Don’t let the sun rise on me
Kiss me once before you go
Tonight you’re the only thing that I want to know
Kiss me once before you go
Tonight you’re the only thing that I want to know
Tonight you’re the only thing that I want to know
