Duet by Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner Writer Don Reno Copyright 1959 Let's live for tonight dear it's better that way tomorrow we might be apart Let's live for tonight dear let love let its way For tomorrow we could have two broken hearts Lets cast all our worries and heartaches inside forget what the future might hold Let's live for tonight dear in a world all our own For tomorrow we may have to be alone [ fiddle ] Let's live for tonight dear and try to pretend that we will never be alone No matter what happened this night will be ours What tomorrow brings nobody ever knows For tomorrow we may have to be alone
