Go on and close the curtains, 'cause all we need is candlelight
You and me and a bottle of wine, and hold you tonight

Well, we know I'm going away, And how I wish, I wish it weren't so
So take this wine and drink with me, Let's delay our misery

There's a log on the fire, and it burns like me for you
Tomorrow comes with one desire, to take me away

It ain't easy to say goodbye, darling please don't start to cry
'cause girl you know I've got to go, and Lord I wish it wasn't so

Tomorrow comes to take me away, I wish that I, that I could stay
but girl you know I've got to go, and Lord I wish it wasn't so.

Save tonight, Fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow, Tomorrow I'll be gone
