Tonight

Lying wide awake through the night till the break of dawn
 Gazing for hours and hours at one page in this book
 So alone I can't get no rest
 Last night was a mess
 Running frantic all over town
 Just to see you again
 And tonight I only feel like a flag hanging still for years
 I would give you everything I have to feel your arms around me
 And I have lived so many fruitless years without going nowhere
 We're sinking into the night
 Down where that cold river flows
 I had some bad dreams last night
 Perhaps it don't mean a thing
 On the bridge you see for a mile
 Where the river runs out lies the ocean open wide
 And so dark in the night
 The summer's gone now
 What can you do
 Everything's closing in
 Something bad afoot in the wind taking everyone
 Tonight there lies a veil over this town so sad and grey
 Someone said you're gonna leave this town
 Don't fit you any longer
 And I just wish I could be by your side and leave this place forever
 But it's over in my heart and soul
 I know it's over
 Still I cannot sleep until I see you
 Then I will be gone
 Then it is over
 Then I disappear
