Just for Tonight
We are hardly more than strangers,
We are both immune to spring.
And we know the bitter dangers
That falling in love can bring.Watch the way the moon illumines
The light that shines in both our eyes;
How did we react as humans
Before we got so goddamned wise?Just for tonight
Let's lie beneath the trees,
Say anything we please---
Just for tonight.Just for tonight
Let's put the past aside,
Let our emotions guide---
Just for tonight.Call it child's play,
Call it infantile;
But if it's child's play,
Let's be children for just awhile.Just for tonight
Let's make believe the thrill
Will last---perhaps it will---
Longer than just for tonight.
