| 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 |
