I got an empty feelin' when that moving van pulled up It got a little emptier as I walked them fill that truck And when they carried out your clothes It took my breath away Now they're headed for that bed The thought keeps running though my head Baby, maybe, we should just sleep on it tonight And give our hearts just one more chance to change our minds I could be wrong but goodbye just don't feel right So baby, maybe, we should just sleep on it tonight I'll pay them boys to stop right now And leave that truck out by the curb The TV and the phones packed up, so we won't be disturbed There's not a light left in this room, just a shadow of a doubt So let's make sure we don't give up Before we've thought this through enough Baby, maybe, we should just sleep on it tonight And give our hearts just one more chance to change our minds I could be wrong but goodbye just don't feel right So baby, maybe, we should just sleep on it tonight
