Here Tonight

(album: Close Up The Honky Tonks - 1974)

It's ten P.M. and I should have made the road tonight
The moon was out and the clouds came in and took it's light
My suitcase is over there somehow I just don't care
'Cause I don't want to be anywhere but here tonight

The rains came down and I should have made an early plane
Where I'd rather be if it can't be seen then I can't explain
It's so warm in here and I want to hold you near
And there is no pain or fear right here tonight

With tomorrows dawn I will carry on what I've set aside
It's not a matter of my faith or of my pride
It just seems so insane to strike out through the rain
When it's so easy to remain right here tonight

It just seems so insane to strike out through the rain
It's so easy to remain right here tonight
