Pretend You Love Me Tonight (Album Wreckin' Yard Stevie Agnew)
Walked down the cobbled streets, on through the pouring rain
Past the flickering streetlights, to the neon window pane
She said her name was April, I left a hundred on the bed
She counted through it slowly, gave me a towel for my head
She asked me how I liked it, before she dimmed the light
I whispered to her softly, Pretend you love me tonight
She took off her blouse, unbuttoned my jeans
Her hair was a picture of how you wore it in your teens
The clouds and the broken moonlight steamed through the motel blind
My thoughts drifted back to when we left this town behind
Moonlight sparkling in your hair, you had me at my best
When we went to the barroom and you wore your pretty dress
I was lost in your embrace, like I held the sky's above
And for once in my life, my best was good enough
She knocked the glass of bourbon, it shattered and it fell
Glass upon the floorboards brought me back to the motel
She climbed off and fetched a bottle, poured me another glass
I sat up and took a drink, but the time had quickly passed
I walked the rain soaked sidewalks, the water blurred my eyes
For all I ever wanted, was you to love me tonight
