Tonight

The young boy wants to move ahead
And the old man sings rewind

I wonder when in this time line
We’ll break to the other side


Maybe there’s a span of time
When we feel we’re neither nor
Not wanting to go back again
And not wanting to go forth


The point in life must be
Pretty dark and hopeless
Terrifying

And if you’re asking me when that is

It must be tonight

The old man sits all by himself
And thinks of better years
When he used to believe in stars
And would dream away his fears


The young boy moves so fast he doesn’t
See the stars above

And all his dreams are crushed by old men
Who didn’t dream enough


We must all agree
There’s a point in life when darkness breaks our
Brittle hopes and dreams

And I’d say

It must be tonight

Stay with me

And it must be tonight
It must be tonight
Save me tonight
It must be tonight
