lyrics

You look so good tonight
Your eyes they shine so bright
How they light up your smile
You're going out somewhere
You think that I don't care
Cos it's been such a while
When I could hold you near
And I could say what I want you to hear
If only I could make you see
But now there's somewhere else you'd rather be
You look so good tonight
But not for me

I thought we'd last so long
Where did it all go wrong?
And how could I be so blind?
I sit back and watch you go
You think that I don't know
So I pretend I don't mind
But way down deep inside
It hurts me so much to know that you've lied
If only I could make you see
But now there's somewhere else you'd rather be
You look so good tonight
But not for me

Just where is it leading to?
Don't know what I'm gonna do
To think now that we're all through
And I'm losing you
Takes my breath away

You look so good tonight
Just want to hold you tight
Don't want to live in the past
But we could start again
Just like it was back then
But this time we'd make it last
Please don't leave me now
Oh, I know things could work out somehow
If only I could make you see
But now there's somewhere else you'd rather be
You look so good tonight
But not for me
