This is not the first time--you tried to get away

This is not a party--where people know your name

This is not a classroom--with teacher at the board

This is not a catshow--with prizes at the door



Chorus

Go--don't you go

Won't you stay with me one more day

If we get through one more night







If we get through one more night



This is not a horse race--where winners beat the time

This is not a funeral--with mourners in a line

This is not a sitcom--where everything's alright

This is not a prison--with terror through the night.



Chorus
