Lyrics Going Out Tonight - Mary Chapin Carpenter
I′m
going
out
tonight
to
find
myself
a
friend
I
need
a
welcome
smile
and
the
grasp
of
a
knowing
hand
Gonna
sit
for
hours
in
a
small
dark
place
Catch
up
with
a
long
lost
face
And
talk
about
how
long
it's
really
been
I′m
going
out
tonight
with
perfume
on
my
wrist
I
need
to
find
someone
to
show
me
what
I've
missed
And
when
I
see
that
someone's
sitting
there
Gonna
tell
your
memory
I
don′t
care
If
he
offers
something
more
than
just
a
kiss
Underneath
the
moon
so
bright
I
wanna
fall
tonight
Beneath
a
spell
Underneath
the
sky
so
clear
I
wanna
find
someone
waiting
there
Who
used
to
know
me
well
I′m
going
out
tonight
without
a
chaperone
I'm
going
to
leave
that
meddling
heart
of
mine
at
home
′Cause
it
don't
like
crowds
or
closing
time
Neon
blues
or
pick-up
lines
It
makes
me
spend
my
Friday
nights
alone
Underneath
the
moon
so
bright
Underneath
the
sky
so
clear
I′m
going
to
tell
myself
that
someone
I
adore
Is
the
one
I'm
with,
ain′t
that
what
friends
are
for
'Cause
my
empty
arms
are
open
wide
I'm
long
on
spite
and
short
on
pride
And
the
old
way
isn′t
working
anymore
I′m
going
out
tonight
to
find
myself
a
friend
