JAMES MORRISON
- The Only Night Lyrics / with translationsWhen I was young and I was a victim of a killing smile
Love was cheap and it was great for a little while
I had to leave but she wanted me to stay
Now and she ripped of my shirt and left her marks of her distain
I just can't take it no more
I can't spend another night alone
I can't take it no more
If this is where we ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have is gone
Then what is wrong with spending time with you
I keep you warm and you hold me tight
This might be our only night
Be our only night
Oh I can't give up
No no, no no
I tried to reconcile but it never made a difference
If you could cut the atmosphere with a knife, it was so tense and cold
And every-time I tried to get a little closer to you
You got further and further away from me until you faded into the distance
Yes you did
There's nothing I could do
If this is where we ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have is gone
Then what is wrong with spending time with you
I keep you warm and you hold me tight
'Cause this might be our only night
This might be our only night
I can't spend another night alone
If this is where I ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have was gone
Then what is wrong with spending time with you
If this is where we ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have is gone
Then what is wrong with spending time with you
Keep me warm and I'll hold me tight
'Cause this might be our only night
Oh yeah
Be our only night
Let me hold you like I want to
We might never get a chance again
Oh can't give up
Love was cheap and it was great for a little while
I had to leave but she wanted me to stay
Now and she ripped of my shirt and left her marks of her distain
I just can't take it no more
I can't spend another night alone
I can't take it no more
If this is where we ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have is gone
Then what is wrong with spending time with you
I keep you warm and you hold me tight
This might be our only night
Be our only night
Oh I can't give up
No no, no no
I tried to reconcile but it never made a difference
If you could cut the atmosphere with a knife, it was so tense and cold
And every-time I tried to get a little closer to you
You got further and further away from me until you faded into the distance
Yes you did
If this is where we ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have is gone
Then what is wrong with spending time with you
I keep you warm and you hold me tight
'Cause this might be our only night
This might be our only night
I can't spend another night alone
If this is where I ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have was gone
Then what is wrong with spending time with you
If this is where we ended up
Then I refuse to be so hard on myself this time
If everything I have is gone
Then what is wrong with spending time with you
Keep me warm and I'll hold me tight
'Cause this might be our only night
Oh yeah
Be our only night
Let me hold you like I want to
We might never get a chance again
Oh can't give up
