Lyrics
MINE FOR THE NIGHT
(c) Pam Hanna (BMI)
Your watch alarm went off at five a.m.
Once again a moment that I dread
You put on clothes youd thrown across the chair
Then kissed me tenderly before you left
In your arms I feel such sweet love
And I hold that dear even when youre just
Chorus
Mine for the night
Not forever
For just a little while
Oooh, in the night
Every now and then
Youre mine for the night
Look at your picture, then turn off the light
Close my eyes yet somehow I see you
All we have between us now are several miles
And everything that youre committed to
Before I fall asleep Im dreaming
Of how you feel next to me when you are
Chorus
Bridge
Oh yes, in your arms I know sweet love
And right now it seems
I'll never, ever have enough of you
Youre only
Chorus
