(Springfield)

Patty's working, but she's watching the clock

She's in the back room counting stock

And down in a warehouse out by the dock

Jesse's lifting crates and breaking rock

But when the whistle blows to end the daily fight

And the working forces turn out the light

Jesse takes that little girl and he holds her tight

As the day fades away he says

We're all that matters tonight



Tonight's the night, I know I'm right

And heart to heart, we'll make it tonight

So hold me tight, and love me right

The world can wait for tomorrow tonight



Patty comes like an angel and takes his hand

Jesse says, Baby, I've got a plan

He says I wanna get married and make a stand

But there's just one thing you gotta understand

Now the pressure of living and the daily fight

Could hurt us in time if our perspective ain't right

So shut the door and put out the light

And baby, be here, because we're all that matters tonight



Tonight's the night, I know I'm right

And heart to heart, we'll make it tonight

So hold me tight, and love me right

The world can wait for tomorrow tonight



Break your back from nine to five

Sweating blood just to stay alive

Running home to the harbor light

Safe and warm, in love so right, tonight



Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight,

Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight



Tonight's the night, I know I'm right

And heart to heart, we'll make it tonight

So hold me tight, and love me right

The world can wait for tomorrow tonight



Tonight's the night, I know I'm right

And heart to heart, we'll make it tonight

So hold me tight, and love me right

The world can wait for tomorrow tonig
