Lyrics:

(Harlan Howard)

Just for tonight pretend you haven't told me
Words I never thought your lips could say
Help me forget that you no longer want me
Tonight we're calling it a day.

I known the facts of life, I can't change them
When flowers die they must be thrown away
But I wonder what I'll do with my tomorrows
Tonight we're calling it a day.

--- Instrumental ---

I'd throw away my pride and beg to hold you
Down on my knees I'd beg for you to stay
But you have other plans and I'm not in them
Tonight we're calling it a day.

I known the facts of life, I can't change them
When flowers die they must be thrown away
But I wonder what I'll do with my tomorrows
Tonight we're calling it a day.

Tonight we're calling it a day...
