此曲為美國歌手Bob Seger所寫，收錄在他1978的專輯《Stranger In Town》中。此曲也是Seger和他的銀彈樂隊 ( The Silver Bullet Band ) 的熱門曲，在美國告示牌熱門排行榜達到第13名。

這是一首情歌，而由歌詞看來，應是首邀約「一夜情」的挑情歌。夜已深了，孤寂男女，就算彼此並不是很中意對方，管它明天會是怎樣，就讓我們擁有今夜吧！外國影片中常有獨自在酒吧喝悶酒的男女，喝到酒吧都快打烊了，然後倆人挽手離開，那種場景似乎滿符合歌曲的意境的。^^

1983，Kenny Rogers & Sheena Easton翻唱的版本，在「鄉村單曲」榜拿下冠軍，在「當代成人」及「流行」榜也分居2、6名。2002，愛爾蘭歌手Ronan Keating和LuLu的版本，在英國排行榜達到第4名，也轟動一時。

I know it's late, I know you're weary
I know your plans don't include me
Still here we are, both of us lonely
Longing for shelter from all that we see
Why should we worry, no one will care girl
Look at the stars so far away
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight babe
Why don' you stay?

Deep in my soul, I've been so lonely
All of my hopes, fading away
I've longed for love, like everyone else does
I know I'll keep searching, even after today
So there it is girl, I've said it all now
And here we are babe, what do you say?
We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight babe
Why don't you stay?

I know it's late, I know you're weary
I know your plans don't include me
Still here we are, both of us lonely
Both of us lonely

We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow?
Let's make it last, let's find a way
Turn out the light, come take my hand now
We've got tonight babe
Why don't you stay?
Why don't you stay?
