Ya I'll dance with you for a while
  But I'm not going to take you home
    I don't even know you last name
  Let me explain
    Been around the world a thousand times
  Been swept away on distant shores
  Bedded down with angels
  Drank their wine
  And always the conclusion is the same
  Making love is always grand
  But eventually
  Love ends a losing game
  So let's leave it alone
  I'm going home
    I'd rather sleep with myself tonight
  Where no one else can harm me baby no
  Oh Oh
  Although I'm really quite fond of you
  My best intentions never turn out right
  I'd rather sleep with myself tonight
    People think celibacy's a crime
  Not saying I won't love again
  But couldn't we just talk for a while
  And lately intimacy's got me down
  Been hurt so many times before
  Jumped the gun and ended up alone
  It may sound a little funny
  But you gotta know
    The information age
  Things move so fast
  Fax machines
  Computer screens
  Seems like love
  Is something of the past
  And modern girls
  Got one thing in their head
  Before you down your second drink
  You're in the cab
  And then you're in her bed
  So let's hold off on the sex play
  I don't even know your last name
    I'd rather sleep with myself tonight
  Where no one else can harm me baby no
  Oh Oh
  Although I'm really quite fond of you
  My best intentions never turn out right
  I'd rather sleep with myself tonight
