"We've Got Tonight" by Bob Seger
Bob Seger: I know it's late, I know you're weary
I know your plans don't include me.
Drunk Girl: I never plan, per say, to have drunk dudes hitting on me. I just always sorta happens . . .
BS: Still here we are, both of us lonely
Longing for shelter from all that we see
DG: Hey, you seem lonely, but don't assume I am. Actually, I was trying to get back to my friends before you stepped in front of me on my way back from the ladies' room.
BS: Why should we worry, no one will care girl
Look at the stars so far away
DG: Oh, now he's going on about the stars. This is a new one, actually. And I know for a fact people will certainly care because I see my friends over there laughing at me for entertaining your proposal for this long.
BS: We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight, babe Why don' you stay?
DG: We can't stay, Bob. It's past last call and they've turned the lights on, and yeah, you're even less good looking as a result.
BS: Deep in my soul, I've been so lonely
All of my hopes, fading away I've longed for love, like everyone else does
I know I'll keep searching, even after today
DG: If I could offer some advice, don't let a girl in on the fact that you're extremely lonely. The pity approach rarely works. Exude some confidence, Bob! Trust me on this.
BS: So there it is girl, I've said it all now
And here we are babe, what do you say?
DG: No, I can't. I seriously have to get up early and . . .
BS: We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight, babe
Why don't you stay?
BS: Ah, what the hell. I have done a lot worse, and you make some solid points.
(meanwhile, back at Bob's shitty apartment)
BS: We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
Let's make it last, let's find a way Turn out the light, come take my hand now
DG: Yes. Lights out. This is for sure a light's out encounter. Let's just get it done, okay?
