Why can't I say that I love you
I cant' say that I don't
I cant say that I couldn't
And I want to say that I won't
But I really like your company
I'm enjoying myself no end
But I can't keep from thinking
Why don't we share the darkness tonight
Make it warm and burning bright
I'm not saying nothing
I'll be polite
Why don't we share the darkness tonight
Life's too short for wishing
For ifs and might have been's
Life's too short for wondering if
You could have lived your dreams
And its way too short for loneliness
Now that we trust each other
Why don't you stay with me?
When the world belongs to distant dogs
And the air is dark and still
And drunken conversations beneath the window sill
And there's someone singing
Elvis songs as they make their way back home
and all your fears and worries
