Dusty Springfield - Long After Tonight Is Over Lyrics






Tonight will be for the first time
I have learned what my lips are for
And darling, now that I've kissed you
I'm craving to kiss you more

Let me tell you
Long after tonight is all over
Long after tonight is all gone
I'll be yours
For ever and a day and
Yours, come anything that may
You'll always be just everything to me, yeah

Here in my arms
When I hold you
I can feel that the world is mine
Don't go away
Don't you leave me
Or I'll cry 'til the end of time

Let me tell you
Long after tonight is all over

Long after it's all gone
I'll be yours
Come anything that may and
Yours, for ever and a day
You'll always be just everything to me, yeah, mmm, mmm

Let me tell you
Long after tonight is all over
Long after it's all gone
I'll be yours
For ever and a day and
Yours, come anything that may
You'll always be just everything to me, yeah,

Long after tonight is all over
Long after tonight is all over
After it's over and done
After it's over and done, hey, boy, yeah
After it's gone, hey, yeah
After it's gone
Long after

  1. M.... S....

    I love it guess I’m all out of loops.

  2. f.... f....

    fab song love it

  3. 8.... ....

    Love jimmy radcliffe version but this better

  4. S.... T....

    Dusty at her best love this song

  5. J.... H....

    I’m sure Burt Bacharach wrote this that’s the reason why she recorded it too !

    J.... H....

    Yes he wrote it with Hal David..

  6. J.... H....

    Only ever heard the jimmy Radcliffe deal!

  7. J.... H....

    WOW I NEVER HEARD THIS BEFORE......AMAZING!!!!!

  8. G.... J....

    So much better than the Jimmy Radcliffe version (which in itself is actually quite good.), One of my own personal Dusty faves. Unfortunately you never hear it at Northern Soul Nights. because too many narrow minded idiots want the Radcliffe song played, as it was the version used at Wigan Casino, back in the day. Wish some of those fruit-loops would clean out their ears, and open up their minds!

    G.... J....

    dusty sings it well ,and i must admit she has a great voice, but my friend you are so wrong , jimmys version is way way better,and its got nothing do with the fact it was a casino song, its just his song and always will be,we did not go to northern gigs to listen to dusty,,

    G.... J....

    This is magic but jimmys just fallen in love at first sight and you can here that in his voice. True love

    G.... J....

    Irma Thomas did a great cover too.. I have to agree that I prefer Dusty's cover to Jimmy Radcliffe's, but it's all subjective I suppose.. I've heard both Dusty and Jimmy dropped at the pier and Winter Gardens in Cleethorpes, and both loved..

  9. c.... ....

    Wow, I never knew Dusty covered this song. Sounds just great, I just love it!

  10. J.... T....

    Best Soul singer Britain produced by a long Scots Mile . Love this version Keep the Faith

  11. l.... ....

    3B48... Awesome version from Dusty. Loving Jimmy Radcliffe version as best in class!

  12. C.... P....

    I just totally adore this woman. love u DUSTY.

  13. D.... F....

    if the use dusty's original recordings in the up coming biopic. that will be good enough for me .

  14. J.... R....

    total class,excellent cover

  15. l.... w....

    First time I've heard this by DS & it certainly won't be the last. Fantastic cover

  16. a.... ....

    There'll never be anyone to beat Dusty she even sang a rap song and that was good, it's called Day Dreaming.

  17. s.... ....

    brill singer brill song ktf

  21. a.... ....

    RIP Dusty, 14 years ago today you left us, but your music is as good as ever and will live on 'Long after tonight is all over'. ♥♥

  22. c.... ....

    Think you're getting confused. The Tobi Legend song on that single was Time Will Pass You By. Long After Tonight was the aforementioned Jimmy Radcliffe version.

  23. f.... b....

    you just like whatever dusty sings!,she can do the lot with that voice!.
    rip dusty.

  24. P.... F....

    Tobi Legend did a fantastic version of this - it was on the flip side of "I'm on my way" by Dean Parrish

  25. J.... M....

    60s Duchess of Soul.....Love it

  26. c.... ....

    @theglasshouse58 No doubt about it my friend. Ktf

  27. T.... M....

    jimmy radcliffe sings the best version but Dustys is good to

  28. H.... H....

    THANK YOU FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG

  29. a.... ....

    I challenge any current charting singer to sing even half as good as this.... listen to 1.56... you wait the whole record ( if you know this song) anticpating what she's gonna do with that final ' yours" and she nails, it buries it , knocks it out the ball park and does it all as if she was sipping afternoon tea on the back lawn. True class

  30. d.... ....

    exellent version -- ktf

  31. b.... ....

    Stunning version.

  32. R.... H....

    Hadn't heard this version - love it! Had the Jimmy Radcliffe tune at our wedding. This is almost as good.

  33. s.... h....

    what a voice absolutely brilliant

  34. b.... ....

    There is going to be a dusty Springfield movie coming out staring Nicole Kidman . Let's all hope thay do it right. She is my fav singer .( with Susan jacks running a close second)

  35. h.... g....

    i've heard the jimmy radcliffe version but this one is terrific. never dusty sing this one before.

  36. L.... ....

    Great version, Dusty does the song proud. Thanks for sharing it.

  37. c.... ....

    Thanks for your comment, Its nice to be appreciated and what a wonderful Lp this is from.

  38. s.... ....

    Love this version. You cannot beat Dusty. Superb in my book. ktf

  39. M.... M....

    This is definitely my favorite take on this song. She reminds me of Peggy Lee.

  40. j.... d....

    Utter Class! Nuff Said! Dusty is sadly missed by many, I loved her and still do.

  41. b.... ....

    there will never be another dusty. rest in peace lady.

  42. D.... B....

    i agree

  43. c.... ....

    I think Jimmy Radcliffe would have aproved of this version. True class. Thanks for the posting.

  44. a.... ....

    There never has been and never will be a female vocalist to come even close to Dusty, Pete Waterman once said, 'People like Dusty happen perhaps every twenty years or more', I disagree Pete, Dusty was a one-off never to be repeated, a real gem, a once in a lifetime experience. God I love that voice. R.I.P lass♥ Ray.

  45. F.... J....

    Fabulous song, from her best ever album!

  46. c.... ....

    Thanks Glad you like it, Love your Channel. It'll never be over for me. Ktf
