not ready to say goodnight

i cleaned up my truck

bought a long stem rose

i shaved with shaking hands

and put on my best clothes

i laughed at all your jokes

like a fool

i can't look away

now your hand's in mine

and i don't know what to say

i'm not ready to say goodnight

i'm not ready to drive you home

i'm not ready to watch you close that door

while i drive off alone

i know there's something between you and me

let's just ride 'til we see daylight

this road is long and the moon is bright

i'm not ready to say goodnight

i can see you're not sure

i'm not sure

let's just take a chance

call it luck

call it fate

destiny

or just circumstance

now you can walk away

and not look back if you choose

i know we've both been hurt before

so there's nothing left to lose

i'm not ready to say goodnight

i'm not ready to drive you home

i'm not ready to watch you close that door

while i drive off alone

i know there's something between you and me

let's just ride 'til we see daylight

this road is long and the moon is bright

i'm not ready to say goodnight

we might wind up lost

or we'll find what we need the most

and we can turn around with the sun

or drive 'til we hit the coast

i'm not ready to say goodnight

i'm not ready to drive you home

i'm not ready to watch you close that door

while i drive off alone

i know there's something between you and me

let's just ride 'til we see daylight

this road is long and the moon is bright

i'm not ready to say goodnight

this road is long and the moon is bright

i'm not ready to say goodnight
