Goodnight by Leslie Mendelson Lyrics
The crowd drifts away
The music's beginning to fade
The last notes have been played
As we drift out of sight
From a young girl selling a rose
Where the neon lights' flicker were closed
On a street where nobody goes
When they turn out the lights
Oh, but you and I
Well, our future looks bright
But for now, goodnight
It won't be long
There's something inside us so strong
And we both know we belong
And we'll hold on tight
Like a child with a big balloon
Like the earth holds on to the moon
Like Eve on a hot afternoon taking a bite
And if you don't go now we just might
So for now, goodnight
Sweet dreams, sweet dreams
Is that the time?
Just one more glass of wine
And I probably will make you mine
But it wouldn't be right
One day our flame will ignite
But for now, goodnight
The music's beginning to fade
The last notes have been played
As we drift out of sight
From a young girl selling a rose
Where the neon lights' flicker were closed
On a street where nobody goes
When they turn out the lights
Oh, but you and I
Well, our future looks bright
But for now, goodnight
It won't be long
There's something inside us so strong
And we both know we belong
And we'll hold on tight
Like a child with a big balloon
Like the earth holds on to the moon
Like Eve on a hot afternoon taking a bite
And if you don't go now we just might
So for now, goodnight
Sweet dreams, sweet dreams
Is that the time?
Just one more glass of wine
And I probably will make you mine
But it wouldn't be right
One day our flame will ignite
But for now, goodnight
