Don Henley - Last Worthless Evening Lyrics
I know you broke up with himAnd your heart's still on the shelfIt's been over two years for meAnd I'm still not quite myselfYou can't be with someone newAnd you can't go back to himYou're beginning to realizeThat it's sink or swimI see you around sometimesAnd my heart just meltsYou're lookin' like if you had your wishYou'd be somewhere elseAnd it just breaks my heartTo see you here this waySomeday I'll get the nerveTo walk up to you and sayThis is the last worthless eveningThat you'll have to spendJust gimme a chanceTo show you how to love againThis is the last worthless eveningThat you'll have to spend'Cause I'll be thereWhen your broken heart is on the mendEvery night it's the same old crowd in smokey roomsYou catch a faint glimpse of love sometimesBut it never bloomsI've been around this block a time or twoAnd I've made some big mistakesBut girl I promise you, I promise youThis is the last worthless eveningThat you'll have to spendJust gimme a chanceTo show you how to love againThis is the last worthless eveningthat you'll have to spend'Cause it won't be long'Till your little heart is on the mendPeople inside their houses with the shades pulled downGod knows, we could use some romancein this sleepy bedroom townI know you're still afraid to rush into anythingBut there're just so many summersAnd just so many springsAnd this is the last worthless eveningThat you'll have to spend, babyJust gimme a chance, gimme a chanceTo show you love againThis is the last worthless eveningThat you'll have to spend 'cause it won't be long'Til your little heart is on the mendThat you'll have to spendJust gimme a chance to show you how to love againThis is the last worthless eveningThat you'll have to spend 'cause it won't be long'Til your little heart is on the mendWritten by Don Henley, John Corey and Stan Lynch*Produced by Don Henley, John Corey and Stan LynchJohn Corey--guitars, keyboardsBob Glaub--bassStan Lynch--percussionMike Campbell--additional guitar(c) 1988 Cass County Music/Grey Hare Music ASCAP
