CAN I SEE YOU TONIGHT
(Rafe VanHoy / Deborah Allen)
Tanya Tucker - 1980
I don't know where to start now that we've fallen apart
How can we talk heart to heart, you're so far away, what can I say
I've tried to understand that things got so out of hand
I've held out as long as I can, now I'm on the telephone sayin'
Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we're wastin'
Everything'd be right
It could be love that we're makin'
(Instrumental Break)
Now that we're on the line, tell you what's on my mind
Love that we're tryin' to hide, well it's sufferin' from too much pride
When will we see the end to this game that nobody wins
'Cause as long as nobody gives in, it goes on and on and on and on
Can I see you tonight
Think of the time that we're wastin'
Everything'd be right
It could be love that we're makin'
Instead of breaking up, instead of breakin' up
Instead of breaking up, instead of breakin' up
Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we're wastin'
Everything'd be right
It could be love that we're makin'
Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we're wastin', baby
Everything ...........FADE
