A tribute to a Mr. Bob Seger, who managed to take the garbled confused words I was stuttering and stammering to say, taking it apart and then putting it all back together; a song that now comfortably resides in my brain and a song that I listen to give me solace... knowing that by singing this, I have said what I wanted to say.
For hearts we long for that cross oceans.... just to be far away:

I know its late, I know you're weary
I know your plans dont include me
Still here we are, both of us lonely
Longing for shelter from all that we see
Why should we worry, no one will care girl
Look at the stars so far away
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight babe
Why don t we stay?

Deep in my soul, I've been so lonely
All of my hopes, fading away
I've longed for love, like everyone else does
I know Ill keep searching, after today
So there it is girl, I've got it all now
And here we are babe, what do you say?
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight babe
Why dont we stay?

I know its late, I know youre weary
I know your plans dont include me
Still here we are, both of us lonely
Both of us lonely
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
Lets make it last, lets find a way
Turn off the light, come take my hand now
Weve got tonight babe
Why dont we stay?
Weve got tonight babe
Why dont we stay?
