A pen and paper beckon
I still have your address
Its written in my diary
Top of the list,
The day that you were leavin'
I promised that I'd write
but it wont be tonight
it wont be tonigth
no, it wont be tonight

Just how to keep a secret
I don't know very well
Rules are made for breaking
Secrets to tell
I'll try to never lose it
Someday I probably might
but it wont be tonight
it wont be tonight
no, it wont be tonight

Tonight my heads in trouble
And it really don't feel right
The promise I will keep it
But not tonight.

I met her down in Taylor's
at a session in the back
You know how it happens,
I followed old tracks
And if I could put my
thoughts on paper
it would'nt feel just right
And it won't be tonight.
no, it wont be tonight
oh, it wont be tonight
no, not tonight
no, not tonight
no, it wont be tonight
