"Any honest neurotic could probably tell you: the emotional payoff of an obsession is not attaining some longed-for goal—it's the obsession itself, which fulfills certain needs. If it didn't, it wouldn't be an obsession." --Taking Sides, David Denby (The New Yorker)

One Night Only

You want all my love and my devotion
You want my loving soul right on the line
I have no doubt
That I could love you forever
The only trouble is
You really don't have the time

You've got one night only
One night only
That's all you have to spare

One night only
Let's not pretend to care

One night only x2
Come on, big baby, come on

One night only
We only have till dawn

In the morning this feeling will be gone
It has no chance going on
Someting so right has got no chance to live

So let's forget about chances
It's one night I will give

One night only x2
You'll be the only one

One night only
Then you have to run

One night only x2
There's nothing more to say

One night only
Words get in the way
