'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
I should have left this town this morning
But it was more than I could do.

And I've waited all day long
For tonight when I'll be staying here with you.

I find it so difficult
to leave.
I can hear that whistle blowin',
I see that stationmaster, too,
If there's a poor boy on the street,
Then let him have my seat
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.

Throw my ticket out the window,
Throw my suitcase out there, too,
Throw my troubles out the door,
I don't need them any more
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.

I left my dreams on the

I hear them semis rolling too,
If there's a driver on the road,
Let him have my load,
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.

If there's a driver on this road,
Then let him have my load,
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
