Here With You Tonight - Lyrics

Title: Here With You Tonight
Artist: Robert Palmer
Composer(s): Peter Gage

Lyric:
Hey girl, you sit there pining
Inside you feel you're dying and the world doesn't care
You need someone to rely on
You need a shoulder you can cry on
Well there's one right here
But let's get one thing clear

I ain't no substitution for the guy
Who left you alone
I'll be here with you tonight
But tomorrow I'll be gone

No commitments and no ties
One thing there won't be no lies
'Cause I got nothing to hide
A little comfort, a little soothing
Just until you've started grooving
Then I'll have to ride

'Cause like I told you babe
I ain't no substitution for the guy
Who left you alone
I'll be here with you tonight
But tomorrow I'll be gone, gone

So remember what I told you
Just tonight I'll stay and hold you till you feel ok
A little loving to ease the pain
You feel yourself again
And then I'm on my way

'Cause like I told you
I ain't no substitution for the guy
Who left you alone
I'll be here with you tonight
But tomorrow I'll be gone, gone, gone

I'll be gone, I'll be gone
Lord it's been long long gone
And I'll be gone
Can't afford to hang on long long
And I'll be gone, gone
I'll be gone
