Lucy Kaplansky
"Just You Tonight"


It's not the altitude that takes my breath away
And makes my body think the air's too thin
It's not the bourbon you've been drinking
That burns the autumn leaves against my skin

CHORUS
It's just you, you tonight
And the music you heard in me somehow
It's just you, you tonight
And I swear to you I'm listening now

It's not a fable that gives meaning
To the language my heart speaks to you
It's not a road map that tells me I've come home
Lying here in the quiet next to you

CHORUS

When you whisper my name
It's like I can hear all these melodies I used to know
I remember them from long ago
