lyrics

We should have been the best of friends but all things end
And you and I
We justify one more night
And now it’s all fallen apart

The closer we get, to the airport
You withdraw
Time got away from us.
It was our fatal flaw

Chorus 1:
So come and be my lover tonight
For the last time
Everything turned out Unlike everything I planned
I will be your woman tonight
For the very last time
Everything I hope be all right
It will be all right

I wish the radio wouldn’t be so sad
Then I’d get mad
Head in the sand
your yellow room
you’re leaving soon
What will we do about it

Chorus 2:
So come and be my lover tonight
For the last time
Everything turned out unlike everything I planned
I will be your woman tonight
For the very last time
Everything will be I hope it’ll be all right
I hope I will be all right

You look at me,
sweet and sincere,
Please don’t disappear
Here at gate, B-Nine
Won't you write and call me
