This is the hardest thing I've ever had to say.

I guess I do exaggerate...

But it's so hard to say goodnight.

Just one more drink, please come inside.

I hold a bottle in each hand, one red and white.

You say whichever I would like...

You see the look that's in my eyes,

And so you ask what's on my mind.



To get you out of that dress tonight.

Should I be honest, should I lie?

If I had the chance to decide I'd:



Give up the ghost. Free up the soul.

Just for another night

As a note in your symphony.

The way you play every inch of me.

Tempo is slow, waves come and go,

Just like the rising tide.

As I swim through your sea of skin,

Got every inch of you trembling.



Another day, our 7th date.

A little party at your friend's,

That we'll extend through the week's end.

But now it's late and there's too many for the car.

Too cold a night to walk that far...

We suck it up and take the trunk.

Lucky for them, luckier for us.



Oh I simply could never get enough.

You've got me wondering if it's love...

Even if it's not, it's enough to:



Give up the ghost. Free up the soul.

Just for another night

As a note in your symphony.

The way you play every inch of me.

Tempo is slow, waves come and go,

Just like the rising tide.

As I swim through your sea of skin,

Got every inch of you trembling.



Give up the ghost. Free up the soul.

Just for another night

As a note in your symphony.

The way you play every inch of me.

Tempo is slow, waves come and go,

Just like the rising tide.

As I swim through your sea of skin,

Got every inch of you trembling.



Baby come in from the cold.

So glad you're home.

Will you spend the night,

And maybe your life with me?
