Forgive me if I think 
That you’re making a bad decision 
Forgive me if I try 
Please don’t go away 
Don’t blame me if I want 
The two of us to stay together 
So let me tell you why 

If only tonight 
If this is all I got 
If I can’t have your love 
I won’t get back up this time 
If only tonight 
I’ll race you to the sun 
Before the [bad word] 
If I can’t change your mind 
It’s only tonight 

And tomorrow you’re gone 
And we’re just a song 
I’m singin alone (singin alone) 

Don’t tell me all this time 
That you weren’t mine 
And I meant nothing 
Why would you end this dream 

Don’t wanna wake up just yet 
Don’t ask me just to forget 
Don’t rip the heart out of me 

If only tonight 
If this is all I got 
If I can’t have your love 
I won’t get back up this time 
If only tonight 
I’ll race you to the sun 
Before the [bad word] 
If I can’t change your mind 
It’s only tonight 

I need you, I need you in my life 
Nobody, nobody loves me like you 
If there was something I could do 
To stop you from leaving 
Cause we’re not through 

If only tonight 
If this is all I got 
If I can’t have your love 
I won’t get back up this time 
If only tonight 
I’ll race you to the sun 
Before the [bad word] 
If I can’t change your mind 
It’s only tonight
