Tonight At Eight Lyrics - Singles - Scott Macintyre

I'm nervous and upset 

because this girl I've never met, 

I get to meet tonight at eight. 

I'm taking her to dinner 

at a charming old cafe, 

but who can eat tonight at eight? 

It's early in the morning and our date 

is not til eight o'clock tonight 

and already i can see 

what a nightmare this whole day will be. 

I haven't slept a wink. 

I only think about her approaching tet a tet 

tonight at eight. 

I feel a combination of depression and elation, 

what a state to wait till eight. 

Three more minutes, 

two more seconds, 

ten more hours to go. 

In spite of all I've written 

she may not be very smitten 

and my hopes, perhaps, 

may all collapse - kapoot 

tonight at eight. 

I wish I knew exactly how I'll act 

and what will happen 

when we dine tonight at eight. 

I know I'll drop the silverware 

but will i spill the water or the wine 

tonight at eight? 

Tonight I'll walk right up and sit right down 

beside the smartest girl in town. 

and then it's anybody's guess. 

More and more I'm breathing less and less. 

In my imagination 

I can see our conversation 

taking shape 

tonight at eight. 

I'll sit there saying absolutely nothing 

or I'll jabber like an ape 

tonight at eight 

Two more minutes, 

three more seconds, 

ten more hours to go. 

I'll know when this is done 

if something has ended or begun 

and if it goes alright 

who knows, I might propose 

tonight at eight.
