It's getting late, it must be two or later I better go before they find I'm still here Since we can't be together, when we turn out the lights Promise me darling that you'll dream about me tonight They get upset when they think that I've stayed too long They're afraid of the things that we might do But since we can't be together, when they turn out the lights Promise me darling that you'll dream about me tonight Bridge: I know someday that we can sleep together I know someday it'll be all right But hold me in your arms just one more time Before we say goodnight, hold me one more time I wish that they could understand our feelings But for now I guess we've got to play by their rules And since we can't be together, when they turn out the lights Promise me darling that you'll dream about me tonight
