It's almost sunrise
Hours and hours gone by
Candles are burned down
Turned into morning light
The time to go has come and gone
Why can't I
Why can't I say goodnight

The whole world is sleeping
And still I can't give in

It's a love story
I never want to end

The time to go has come and gone
Why can't I

Why can't I say goodnight

I'm using up all my strength

I can't tear myself away
It only gets harder as night turns to day

There isn't one place
Honey  that i'd rather be
Than right here in your arms
With your head layin' on me
The time to go has come and gone
Why can't I
Why can't I say goodnight

Darlin  why can't I say goodnight
