Story Behind The Song
Written in a Los Angeles hotel room, this upbeat number stems from a long-time crush finally making a move the night before leaving for a week-long cross country trip. Spending half the trip re-imagining that evening resulted in thoroughly energetic and upbeat music that comes far too close to bubblegum pop for the artist, yet it never fails to get everyone in the room dancing and perfectly captured the spirit that the night it was inspired by had.

Lyrics
We've only got tonight, and I think you know I want you,
take me by the hand, give me more than just a good time
let me show you how we'll make this feel like forever
baby wont you let me let you let me let you let go
let me let you let go
The sun is setting on our summer, now, and soon it will be gone,
but you made it paradise on earth
I fell for every line you sang to me, drinking cheap red wine
beside you, here, the stars aligned
We've only got tonight, and I think you know I want you,
take me by the hand, give me more than just a good time
let me show you how we'll make this feel like forever
baby wont you let me let you let me let you let go
let me let you let go
We spent the night out on the city streets, can you feel it too,
right then we were invincible
I can't remember the last time I felt this way, like I was
born to be right here, lost in your eyes
We've only got tonight, and I think you know I want you,
take me by the hand, give me more than just a good time
let me show you how we'll make this feel like forever
baby wont you let me let you let me let you let go
let me let you let go
let me let you
We've only got tonight
We've only got tonight
We've only got tonight, and I think you know I want you,
take me by the hand, give me more than just a good time
let me show you how we'll make this feel like forever
baby wont you let me let you let me let you let go
let me let you let go
