  • Go on and close the curtains
    'Cause all we need is candlelight
    You and me, and a bottle of wine
    Gonna hold you tonight, uh, yeah

    Well, we know I'm going away
    And how I wish, I wish it weren't so
    So take this wine and drink with me
    Let's delay our misery

    Save tonight
    And fight the break of dawn
    Come tomorrow
    Tomorrow I'll be gone
    Save tonight
    And fight the break of dawn
    Come tomorrow
    Tomorrow I'll be gone

    There's a log on the fire
    And it burns like me for you
    Tomorrow comes with one desire
    To take me away, oh, it's true

    It ain't easy to say goodbye
    Darlin', please, don't start to cry
    'Cause, girl, you know I've got to go, oh
    And, Lord, I wish it wasn't so

    Save tonight
    And fight the break of dawn
    Come tomorrow
    Tomorrow I'll be gone
    Save tonight
    And fight the break of dawn
    Come tomorrow
    Tomorrow I'll be gone

    Tomorrow comes to take me away
    I wish that I, that I could stay
    But, girl, you know I've got to go, oh
    And, Lord, I wish wasn't so

    Save tonight
    And fight the break of dawn
    Come tomorrow
    Tomorrow I'll be gone
    Save tonight
    And fight the break of dawn
    Come tomorrow
    Tomorrow I'll be gone

    Save tonight
    And fight the break of dawn
    Come tomorrow
    Tomorrow I'll be gone
    Save tonight
    And fight the break of dawn
    Come tomorrow
    Tomorrow I'll be gone

    Tomorrow I'll be gone
    Tomorrow I'll be gone
    Tomorrow I'll be gone
    Tomorrow I'll be gone

    Save tonight
    Save tonight
    Save tonight
    Save tonight
    Oh, that's right
    Save tonight
