"It Won't Be Tonight" lyrics

"It Won't Be Tonight"

A pen and paper beckon
I still have your address
Its written in my diary
Top of the list
The day that you were leaving
I promised that I'd write
But it won't be tonight

Just how to keep a secret
I don't know very well
Rules are made for breaking
Secrets to tell
I'll try to never lose it
Someday I probably might
But it won't be tonight

Tonight my heads in trouble
And it really don't feel right
The promise I will keep it
But not tonight

I met her down in Taylor's
At a session in the back
You know how it happens
I followed old tracks
And if I could put my
Thoughts on paper
It wouldn't feel just right
And it won't be tonight
