This Night Won't Last Forever

Roy Freeland / Bill LaBounty

Rundown Studios, Santa Monica CA - 9.oct.1980  

Everybody likes a celebration
Happy music and conversation
I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't have the blues
In the corner there's a couple dancin'
From the kitchen I can hear her laughin'
Oh I wish I was celebratin' too.

I know this night won't last forever
I know the sun's gonna shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
To show this heart is gonna mend just fine.

So pardon me for my disposition
Wish I didn't have to sit and listen
She's playin' the same old songs on the radio
She's been lying since the day I met her
I'd be better off to just forget her
Oh I, I wish I rather be lonesome and go.

I know this night won't last forever
I know the sun's gonna shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
To show this heart is gonna mend just fine.

I know this night won't last forever
I knew the sun's gonna shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
To show this heart is gonna mend just fine.
