This Night Won't Last Forever

Everybody likes a celebration
Happy music and conversation
I'd be lying if I said I didn't have the blues
In the corner there's a couple dancing
From the kitchen I can hear them laughing
Oh, I wish I was celebrating too.

I know this night won't last forever
I know the sun is gonna shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
To show this heart is gonna mend just fine.

So pardon me for my disposition
I wish I didn't have to sit and listen
She's playing the same old songs on the stereo
She's been lying since the day I met her
I'd be better off to just forget her
Oh, I would rather be lonesome all alone.

And I know this night won't last forever
I know the sun is gonna shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
And I know this heart is gonna mend just fine.

Such a ridiculous situation
Pretending there's nothing wrong
She's coming on with the invitation
I wonder who is taking her home?

I know this night won't last forever
I know the sun is gonna shine sometime
I need some hope for a bright tomorrow
To show this heart is gonna mend just fine.
