Not Tonight Lyrics - Steel Magnolia - Steel Magnolia

If I were stronger I'd just let you leave 

You'd say it's over and I would just agree 

Then I'd tell you I wish you the best, I really do 

You deserve happiness, I can't give you what you need 

You can leave, just not tonight 

I'm not ready to lay this down 

I'm too stubborn to quit you now 

There's a voice somewhere deep inside of my mind 

Saying it's too soon to let you go tonight 

I'm in no hurry to hear goodbye 

Why can't it wait till the morning light? 

We can come undone some other time 

Just not tonight 

Before the stars go out, before we disappear 

Let me hold you now, rest your head, right here 

But I can't live without you to make your love come back 

What can I say to make you stop 

Here in your tracks, I know you're staring at the wrong way, as tonight 

I'm not ready to lay this down 

I'm too stubborn to quit you now 

There's a voice somewhere deep inside of my mind 

Saying it's too soon to let you go tonight 

I'm in no hurry to hear goodbye 

Why can't it wait till the morning light? 

We can come undone some other time 

Just not tonight 

Not tonight 

I'm not ready to lay this down 

I'm too stubborn to quit you now 

There's a voice somewhere deep inside of my mind 

Saying it's too soon to let you go tonight 

I'm in no hurry to hear goodbye 

Why can't it wait till the morning light? 

We can come undone some other time 

Just not tonight 

Not tonight 

Just not tonight 

If I were stronger I'd just let you leave 

You'd say it's over and I would just agree
