Lover Tonight

(albüm: The Man Who Killed Love - 2006)

Leave on the light, burning like a midday sun.
There's trouble tonight and I can feel it coming on.
I'm home drunk again,
Waiting on the same old show,
Just another lonely writer trying to make it down this road alone.

And lover, tonight, don't leave.
Just one more kiss upon my cheek.
'Cause it's just miles and time,
Between this heart of yours and mine,
And lover, tonight, don't go.

I got a suicide mouth, but I'm dying to kill.
I tell you do what you want, cause hunny I know that you will.
A slap in the face is just like a knife in the heart,
But you cant' take it back now, darling,
Without leaving a scar.

And lover, tonight, don't leave.
Just one more kiss upon my cheek.
'Cause it's just miles and time,
Between this heart of yours and mine,
And lover, tonight, don't go.

And how do we get back to where we started, love?
And what do we do when everything is not enough?
Oh, when all of your cards are played,
Maybe we should just walk away.

And lover, tonight, don't leave.
Just one more kiss upon my cheek.
'Cause it's just miles and time,
Between this heart of yours and mine,
And lover, tonight, don't go.
