I Don't Want to Say Goodnight Lyrics

Standing on the edge of night
The crowds have all gone home
We both know when darkness falls
We'll be here on our own
There comes a time when silence speaks your mind
And now I realise what I'm not saying

Oh I don't want to say goodnight
And I want to get this right
Cause there's nothing good about goodbye
I don't want to say goodnight
There's something I can't find
Cause when all is said and done
I don't want to say goodnight

So many times the words get in the way
And now just listen to what I'm not saying
Oh I don't want to say goodnight
And I want to get this right
Cause there's nothing good about goodbye
I don't want to say goodnight
There's something I can't find
Cause when all is said and done
I don't want to say goodnight
This ship will be sailing
Yes we'll be staying
Oh what were not saying tonight
All the sweetest, all the deepest
Words on high

Oh I don't want to say goodnight
And I want to get this right
Cause there's nothing good about goodbye
I don't want to say goodnight
There's something I can't find
Cause when all is said and done
I don't want to say goodnight.
