Just for Tonight
Words and music by Bobby Cochran and Jerry Edmonton
Walk the lonely highway
Neon signs light the road
Won't you help me find the right way
To a place of time and hope
Where we all get kind of mellow
And where life is not a joke
We're here today gone tomorrow
All in life is ours to own
Bridge: You are with me, I won't ask you why, you are old enough to know
I will move you, and we'll draft away, then tomorrow I will go
Chorus: Just for tonight, I will love you darlin', just for tonight
Is this cycle never ending
Or am I not meant to know
Lost in life am I pretending
Chasing winds that never blow
Yet in my life I've know many
Sharing moments as we go
Yes we've all had times so empty
That if someone asked we'd go
Bridge: I have held you, in a special way, but I won't see you again
As I leave you sorrow blinds my eyes to the things that are within
Chorus: Just for tonight, I will love you darlin, Just for tonight
As I touch you, we will say goodbye, 'cause the times has come to go
You believe me, and I want to say, I will never let you go
Chorus: Just for tonight, I will love you darlin, Just for tonight
Just for tonight, I will love you darlin, Just for tonight
