Let's forget unpleasant memories
Let them lie there in the past
Say you love me again,
That tonight wont be our last

Yesterday's gone forever
And tomorrow's out of sight
So if you've ever loved me
Then why not tonight?

Why not tonight, why not tonight
If you can't forgive me
And love me again
Then why not tonight?

We'll search back through the ashes
Of the bridges we've burned,
All the lessons we've been taught,
Surely ones we've learned

We've got a chance in a lifetime
To find love once more
If you're ever gonna love me
Then why not tonight?

Why not tonight, Why not tonight
If you can forgive me
And love me again
Then why not tonight?

(Spoken)
Sweetheart, look at me and listen
Our love is like an eternal flame
And I don't believe that it'll ever die
And this may be our last chance
To make things right
So if you've ever gonna love me
Then why not tonight
