Why Not Spend the Night?

We both know where this is going.

Let’s do what feels right.

We know which way the wind is blowing.

So why not spend the night?

 

We both know where this is heading,

What we both long to do.

I have such comfortable bedding,

The perfect size for two.

 

Passion’s not meant to be kept hidden.

Bring it out into the light.

You’ll be sorry that you didn’t,

When we could have spent the night.

 

We both know where this is leading:

The what, the where, and how.

There’s no harm in us proceeding.

Why should we turn back now?

 

We both knew that you weren’t leaving

When I first held you tight.

We could share more than an evening.

So why not spend the night?
