Janis Ian Don't Leave Tonight Lyrics

It's easy to see
We've wasted our time
And now you believe it's the end of the line
I've know all along
That the truth must be told
But I never expected to hear it so cold

No time like today
For yesterday's dreams
When all our parades come apart at their seems
But every dark corner is another man's dream
Do you know what I mean
Do you know what you mean to me

Don't leave tonight
I need tomorrow
We'll put up a fight
To make our love right
Don't leave tonight

Now we've agreed that the laughter and tears Only relieved the weight of our years
Now that the sunrise is cold-hearted clear
How close the night when the morning draws near

Yesterday's sorrows
Yesterday's dreams
All our tomorrow's how brightly they seem

Do you know what I mean
Do you know what you mean to me
Don't leave tonight
I need tomorrow
We'll put up a fight
To make our love right
Don't leave tonight

Don't leave tonight
I need tomorrow
We'll put up a fight
Gonna make our love right
Don't leave tonight
