Lyrics
Well, I’m not talkin’ ’bout lockin’ down forever, baby
That would be too demandin’
I’m just talkin’ ’bout two lonely people
Who might reach a little understandin’
I’m not talkin’ ’bout knockin’ out heaven
With whether we’re wrong or we’re right
I’m not talkin’ ’bout hookin’ up and hangin’ out
I’m just talkin’ ’bout tonight
You were sittin’ on your bar stool
Talkin’ to some fool who didn’t have a clue
I guess he couldn’t see you were lookin’ right at me
‘Cause I was lookin’ at you too
Then it’s, “Do you wanna dance?”
“Have we ever met?”
You said, “Hold your horses, boy
I ain’t that easy to get”
Well, I’m not talkin’ ’bout lockin’ down forever, baby
That would be too demandin’
I’m just talkin’ ’bout two lonely people
Who might reach a little understandin’
I’m not talkin’ ’bout knockin’ out heaven
With whether we’re wrong or we’re right
I’m not talkin’ ’bout hookin’ up and hangin’ out
I’m just talkin’ ’bout tonight
She said, “I only take it slow
By now you oughta know that I ain’t diggin’ this”
“If we can start as friends
The weekend just might end, with a little kiss”
She said, “I’m a lady lookin’ for a man in my life
Who’ll make a good husband
I’ll make a good wife”
Easy now
I’m not talkin’ ’bout lockin’ down forever, baby
That would be too demandin’
I’m just talkin’ ’bout two lonely people
Who might reach a little understandin’
I’m not talkin’ ’bout knockin’ out heaven
With whether we’re wrong or we’re right
See, I’m not talkin’ ’bout hookin’ up and hangin’ out
I’m just talkin’ ’bout tonight
Yeah, I’m just talkin’ ’bout a little bit later tonight
