Last Night, Ev'ry Night

I watch you as you wake and rub your eyes

And try to hide them from the morning sun

I whisper, "How you doing?"

And you smile and say so tenderly, "Good morning hun!"

Last night you made his memory fade a little

You helped me see how love can still be right

I wish you didn't have to leave

If you just knew how much I need

Last night, every night

I know you have to catch a plane to Memphis

And you mentioned it's an early flight

You start to pack

And while I comb my hair

I stare at you and think about last night

Last night you made his memory fade a little

You helped me see how love can still be right

I wish you didn't have to leave

If you just knew how much I need

Last night, every night

I slip into my robe to go make coffee

You come in and pull me close to you

And as I feel your tender kiss

I whisper, "Can't Memphis wait a day or two?"

Last night you made his memory fade a little

You helped me see how love can still be right

I wish you didn't have to leave

If you just knew how much I need

Last night, every night

Last night you made his memory fade a little

You helped me see how love can still be right

I wish you didn't have to leave

If you just knew how much I need

Last night, every night
