The Last Worthless Evening Lyrics

I know you broke up with him

And your heart's still on the shelf

It's been over two years for me

And I'm still not quite myself

You can't be with someone new

And you can't go back to him

You're beginning to realize

That it's sink or swim

I see you around sometimes

And my heart just melts

You're lookin' like if you had your wish

You'd be somewhere else

And it just breaks my heart

To see you here this way

Someday I'll get the nerve

To walk up to you and say

This is the last worthless evening

That you'll have to spend

Just gimme a chance

To show you how to love again

This is the last worthless evening

That you'll have to spend

'Cause I'll be there

When your broken heart is on the mend

Every night it's the same old crowd

in smokey rooms

You catch a faint glimpse of love sometimes

But it never blooms

I've been around this block a time or two

And I've made some big mistakes

But girl I promise you, I promise you

This is the last worthless evening

That you'll have to spend

Just gimme a chance

To show you how to love again

This is the last worthless evening

that you'll have to spend

'Cause it won't be long

'Till your little heart is on the mend

People inside their houses

with the shades pulled down

God knows, we could use some romance

in this sleepy bedroom town

I know you're still afraid to rush into anything

But there're just so many summers

And just so many springs

And this is the last worthless evening

That you'll have to spend, baby

Just gimme a chance, gimme a chance

To show you love again

This is the last worthless evening

That you'll have to spend 'cause it won't be long

'Til your little heart is on the mend

That you'll have to spend

Just gimme a chance to show you how

to love again

This is the last worthless evening

That you'll have to spend 'cause it won't be long

'Til your little heart is on the mend
