I don't know if you'll understand

But I'm hopin' that you'll follow me down to the waterway

I'll be there if you change your mind

Listening to the ticking of the hands on a clock working overtime



If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl

If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl

If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl



Now you're here standing next to me

I've seen your face on every girl that I've held since you went away

It's getting late and I have to know

I'm mending the wings of a heart that was broken not so long ago



If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl

If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl

If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl



(Instrumental break)



If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl
