Lyrics
NEVER HAVE A BETTER NIGHT
I remember you
When you was hard to get.
Tried to take you out
No-one took the bet
Yeah...You had it hummin',
Movin' so good.
Built like Henry Ford
Been underneath your hood.
And here we are again.
You know I'll treat you right.
Yeah, we both seen better days,
But you won't never... Never have a better night.
If ya gave me half a chance
Half a life ago.
We'd still be in that dance
Rockin' to and fro.
If I knew back then
What I can show ya now,
You'da had your way with me,
Then had me take a bow.
And here we are again
You know I'll treat you right.
Yeah, we both seen better days,
But you won't never...Never have a better night.
Can't stop the sunset
But I tell ya true
Over the hill
Don't mean I'm over you.
Baby take these hands
Turn back time.
To that old Senior Prom
Wanna see your prime
And here we are again
You know I'll treat you right.
Yeah, we both seen better days,
But you won't never...Never have a better night.
