Not Tonight Lyrics by Eddie Schwartz

Public Life

0

Her lips, her arms
The night was gentle and warm
The lights shine from the city
We parked where the view was pretty
Our hearts beat fast
The time for conversation was past
I felt her body arch
Her lips began to part
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
Green nails, blue coat
A red scarf tied around her white throat
"What did you do that for?"
She asked me as I locked her door
"It's OK, it's all right
You don't have to love me tonight"
And then her eyes grew wise
And I alone heard how she cried
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
I was stopped at the gate of heaven
I was stopped at the gate of heaven
I was stopped at the gate of heaven
I was stopped at the gate of heaven
My wrists are tied
A priest kneels at my side
A jailor turns a key
Footsteps are coming for me
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
No, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
Not tonight
Oh no, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
No, no, no, no, no, no
Not tonight
Not tonight
Not tonight
(Not tonight)
No, no, no!
