Why can't I say that I love you

I cant' say that I don't

I cant say that I couldn't

And I want to say that I won't

But I really like your company

I'm enjoying myself no end

But I can't keep from thinking

Why don't we share the darkness tonight

Make it warm and burning bright

I'm not saying nothing

I'll be polite

Why don't we share the darkness tonight

Life's too short for wishing

For ifs and might have been's

Life's too short for wondering if

You could have lived your dreams

And its way too short for loneliness

Now that we trust each other

Why don't you stay with me?

When the world belongs to distant dogs

And the air is dark and still

And drunken conversations beneath the window sill

And there's someone singing

Elvis songs as they make their way back home

and all your fears and worries
