Southside Johnny & the Asbury Jukes - Bedtime lyrics

(B. Rush/J. Lyon)

Oh, baby, let's not pretend

Neither of us needs another part-time friend

Right about now is the time to take a chance

Ah, baby, you know that it's the truth

Both of us know what the other's been through

But this don't seem like the same old song and dance

Ah baby, it's bedtime

But that don't mean it's got to be the last time

Love doesn't stop at bedtime

I want this love to last for all time

I know you want to hold on tight

But you're frightened by the laughter in the lonely night

Coming from a lover, who became a total stranger

Ah, baby, it's bedtime

But that don't mean it's got to be the last time

Love doesn't stop at bedtime

I want this love to last for all time

I will never run away

Taking all the love you give

Let you down, lead you on

Take all you need to live

Oh, baby, take my hand

Listen to me darling

Try to understand

This time, this time

There isn't any danger

Ah baby, it's bedtime

But that don't mean it's got to be the last time

Love doesn't stop at bedtime

I want this love to last for all time
