Tonight was such a beautiful disappointment I know now that I have got to stay clear Keep your smile away for a while If things get good, I might agree to see you again And let things happen We behaved like perfect gentlemen and gentlewomen From the cigarette smiles to the way we started to eat Conversations getting heated Then I made you blush, with honest opinion And magical touch Then I said I love you in a way They could never ever fake
Now God can send us away Yes I was truthful Yes I was truthful The blue rose the cowboy had bought you in the evening Gave us a reason to endure the impossible song The karaoke singing buffoon (playing Styx covers and ruining the mood) I couldn't find it in me to go for the k** If I only had the bills To hire a hit man who could make it so quiet And not make a mess on the floor And I'd remember how to adore The night we had started before
