Let's Just Be Friends for Tonight Lyrics

You told me you'd never seen me in here before
But every night about this time I walk right through that same old door
And now you tell me you wanna show me around the town
But it's only ‘cause some other girl let you down

[Chorus]
So we can talk for a while
I will give you a wink and a smile
Let you know everything is gonna be alright
But I don't want a new love

Unless it's gonna be a true love
So darlin' let's just be friends for tonight

I can't count all the times that I have played the fool
But my heart knows a whole lotta things that you can't learn in school
And I won't trust the sad sad story of a man
With the heat in his eye and a cold one in his hand
[Chorus]
