Tonight by sitotylo

Tonight, tonight as I watch the weights collide

I’m thinking ‘bout being by your side…

Alright, alright, so you took me for a ride

Still I wish I was next to you.

 

And if there was one thing I could name

Or if there was one thing I could blame

And if right now I could change this game…

I’d welcome your ecstasy.

But listen, I’m up against a wall

I’m ready to rise or split or fall

And dammit, if I could have it all…

I’d just wish you were next to me.

 

 

You speak, you tell me that you can’t bear the weight.

You’re sayin’ “Not now love, it’s too late…

My life, my life wasn’t cut out for this fate.

And I just can’t get next to you.

 

And if there’s a chance I’ll change my mind

Or even consider acting kind,

I’d have to reach out and hold you blind.

 ‘Cause you don’t mean that much to me.

I’m sorry you’re up against a wall,

But you were the one who forced this call.

See, baby, my life is oh so small…     

And I just can’t get next to you.”

 

 

Tonight, tonight as I watch the rain subside

I’m thinking ‘bout all the ways we tried.

Alright, alright, so you took me for a ride

Still I wish you were next to me.

And if there was one thing I could blame

Or if there was one thing I could name

And if, right now I could change this game…

I’d open my arms to you.

 

So what if I’m up against the wall

It’s me and not you who sees the scrawl

And though I survive and grab it all…

I’ll still dream that you’re next to me.

 

La-la-la…..

 

Tonight, tonight as I watch the weights collide…
