Bedtime Lyrics

Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes Bedtime

(B. Rush/J. Lyon)

Oh, baby, let's not pretend
Neither of us needs another part-time friend
Right about now is the time to take a chance

Ah, baby, you know that it's the truth
Both of us know what the other's been through
But this don't seem like the same old song and dance

Ah baby, it's bedtime
But that don't mean it's got to be the last time
Love doesn't stop at bedtime
I want this love to last for all time

I know you want to hold on tight
But you're frightened by the laughter in the lonely night
Coming from a lover, who became a total stranger

Ah, baby, it's bedtime
But that don't mean it's got to be the last time
Love doesn't stop at bedtime
I want this love to last for all time

I will never run away
Taking all the love you give
Let you down, lead you on
Take all you need to live

Oh, baby, take my hand
Listen to me darling
Try to understand
This time, this time
There isn't any danger

Ah baby, it's bedtime
But that don't mean it's got to be the last time
Love doesn't stop at bedtime
I want this love to last for all time
