Why Donīt You Spend The Night

OPENER
Sides Face Grand Square
Why did it get so late, where did the
night go to?
Strange how it slips away when Iīm with you.
Allemande left and weave the ring
I know itīs almost two, I know you
should leave but wait
Iīve thought it over, there something I gotta say
FIGURE
Heads square thru four hands around now
Dosado that corner one
Swing thru tonight, and let the boys run
Bend the line and do the right & left thru
Pass the ocean and recycle
Swing the corner girl and promenade singing
Oh, come on now, why donīt you spend the
night
MIDDLE BREAK
Sides face, grand square
Maybe I spoke to soon, maybe my timing is wrong
Maybe itīs something I shouldnīt have said at all
Allemande left and weave the ring
But when I look in your eyes, I feel
like were almost one
Ah, something tells me the night only just begunCLOSER
Sides face, grand square
Why donīt we spend the
night, somehow it seems so right
Why does it have to end so soon, please stay ītill the morninī light
Allemande left and weave the ring
Itīs such a long way home, and youīd
only be alone
Oh, come on now, why donīt we spend the night
