What an awesome song. Geez, I'm discovereing all this great 80s music (The Outfield, John Cougar, etc.) that I didn't even know existed.

😀
 
Josie's on a vacation far away
Come around and talk it over
So many things that I'd like to say
You know I like my girls a little bit older
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight

I ain't got many friends left to talk to
No-one's around when I'm in trouble
You know I'd do anything for you
Stay the night - we'll keep it under cover
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight

Try to stop my hands from shakin'
Somethin' in my mind's not makin' sense
It's been awhile since we've been all alone
I can't hide the way I'mm feelin'

As you leave me please would you close the door
and forget what I told you
Just 'cause you're right - that don't mean I'm wrong
Another shoulder to cry upon
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight
Yeah
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight
Lose your love
Lose your love
Lose your love

John Mellencamp is awesome! He lives 50 miles away from me too so that's kinda cool 😛
Cool, though I thought his 1994 'hit' Wild Night was kind of a bust. 🙂
 
You got me all screwed up
So much I can?t turn ?round
And I?ve been running about with some funny girls
I?m not so tough,
But if you let me down (I?ll tell ya)
I?d give you just one day to explain
I?d like to know if there?s somebody else in this game

(chorus)
Say it isn?t so, tell me I?m the only one
Say it isn?t so, without you I can?t go on
How was I to know, if you keep me guessing I don?t understand

I can?t sleep at night
I keep on dreaming you?re gone
I?m staring into a space that was filled by your face
Facing the day,
A face in the crowd
I?m sure I saw you just a moment ago
There must be something you don?t want me to know

(chorus)

There?s something wrong, suspicion?s getting stronger
Don?t know if I can stand this pain much longer
You play around but I see right through you

It?s lonely on the streets when it?s just one a.m.
See a lot of pretty girls passing by
I?m walking in the midnight sun once again,
And now I know why love is so blind,
Cos when you?re out of my sight,
I?m out of your mind,

(chorus)

Say it isn?t so
Say it isn?t so
Say it isn?t so
Say it isn?t so

Pat Benatar's cover of it is good too. She also did a nice job on Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights."

That Wuthering Heights song by Kate Bush creeps me out everytime.
