Overnight

Overnight

Oh darlin’ I can’t hold out
Livin’ with you I lived in doubt
All the dreams we almost shared
And all the times our souls were bared
I know I can’t be spared overnight

Oh baby, I can’t rise above
I think about you, I cry for love
All we meant and all we felt
But you can’t always play the cards you’re dealt
I know I can’t change luck overnight

But I can’t help wonder as I walk away
If I took that last look
Would it make me want to stay
Ooh you know I want to stay

Oh lady I can’t think straight
Somethin’ I had to tell you, but it’s too late
And the road cuts the night
And the morning brings a new day’s light
I know I can’t get there overnight
