Forgive me if I think
That you’re making a bad decision
Forgive me if I try
Please don’t go away
Don’t blame me if I want
The two of us to stay together
So let me tell you why

If only tonight
If this is all I got
If I can’t have your love
I won’t get back up this time
If only tonight
I’ll race you to the sun
Before the morning comes
If I can’t change your mind
It’s only tonight

And tomorrow you’re gone
And we’re just a song
I’m singin alone (singin alone)
(repeat)

Don’t tell me all this time
That you weren’t mine
And I meant nothing
Why would you end this dream

Don’t wanna wake up just yet
Don’t ask me just to forget
Don’t rip the heart out of me

If only tonight
If this is all I got
If I can’t have your love
I won’t get back up this time
If only tonight
I’ll race you to the sun
Before the morning comes
If I can’t change your mind
It’s only tonight

I need you, I need you in my life
Nobody, nobody loves me like you
If there was something I could do
To stop you from leaving
Cause we’re not through

If only tonight
If this is all I got
If I can’t have your love
I won’t get back up this time
If only tonight
I’ll race you to the sun
Before the morning comes
If I can’t change your mind
It’s only tonight
