I Need You Tonight Lyrics

When the music stops
I walk you to your door
And we say goodnight
Like a thousand times before

This is the night (night)
I just can't walk away, oh
This is the night
I need you even more

Why should we wait 'til tomorrow? oh, oh
Why should we wait 'til tomorrow? oh, oh
I can't wait til' tomorrow oh
I need you tonight

I drive away, but you're still on my mind
It's gettin' so hard leavin' you behind
This is the night I just want you to know, oh
This is the night I just can't let you go

Why should we wait 'til tomorrow? oh, oh
Why should we wait 'til tomorrow? oh, oh
I can't wait til' tomorrow oh
I need you tonight

Yeah!

Oh!

Why should we wait 'til tomorrow? oh, oh
Why should we wait 'til tomorrow? oh, oh
I can't wait til' tomorrow oh
I need you tonight

And I need you tonight
'Cause I need you tonight

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
