The Last Worthless Evening

LETRA

The Last Worthless Evening

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 realise that it's sink or swim

I see you around sometimes and my heart just melts
You're looking 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
Cos I'll be there when your broken heart is on the mend

Every night it’s the same old crowd in smoky 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 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
Cos it won't be long til 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 how to
love again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
Cos it won't be long til your little heart is on the mend

Oh yeah, uh huh, that you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance darling to show you how to love again,
again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
Cos it won't be long til your broken heart is on the mend
