(words and music by Joe Jackson)



You know you're gonna have to face up to the facts

You're just another face in a big crowd

You know we gotta try hard to relax

We can laugh - but not too loud

It's never like you see in a magazine

And you don't even know what you mean to me

And I don't understand this feeling



But I wanna be with you tonight

I wanna be with you tonight

I wanna be with you tonight

Tonight and forever



You drive me crazy and you say that you'll never change

And I could never do what you want to

Don't you find the whole thing a little strange

I don't even know if I like you

It's never like you see on a movie screen

But there's something that you do to me

And I'm not sure that I believe it



But I wanna be with you tonight

I wanna be with you tonight

I wanna be with you tonight

Tonight and forever



I wanna be with you tonight

I wanna be with you tonight

I wanna be with you tonight

Tonight and forever

Tonight and forever

Tonight and forever
