Available on the album Blue Moves
Tonight
Do we have to fight again
Tonight
I just want to go to sleep
Turn out the light
But you want to carry grudges
Nine times out of ten
I see the storm approaching
Long before the rain starts falling
Tonight
Does it have to be the old thing
Tonight
It's late, too late
To chase the rainbow that you're after
I'd like to find a compromise
And place it in your hands
My eyes are blind, my ears can't hear
And I cannot find the time
Tonight
Just let the curtains close in silence
Tonight
Why not approach with less defiance
The man who'd love to see you smile
Who'd love to see you smile
TonightYes it's dark sometimes
When the people are shoving
Pushing you into the ground
And you cry in the daylight
With the sun in your eyes
Even though you know you're not alone
And it's all been felt before
You stare out through your window
And wonder if there's gonna be more
It brings you down
It's like a war
Who pays the price
If you want more
Quiet desperation of a million lives
Gonna make you change your ways
We got everything we wanted
But we forgot how we got it
Just can't paint it golden anyway
And the strength of all you're giving
Is gonna make the changes
Tomorrow's gonna bring a new day
It brings you down
It's like a war
Who pays the price
If you want more
As the years go by
Will it show on your face
Or stay hidden behind some door
Yeah you made your resolutions
With the will of a priest
But you're not so sure anymore
And the reasons why you're living
Keep changing
Everytime you find a key you find more
It brings you down
It's like a war
Who pays the price
If you want more
It brings you down
It's like a war
Who pays the price
If you want more
It brings you down
It's like a war
Who pays the price
If you want more
It brings you down
It's like a war
Who pays the price
If you want more
It brings you down
It's like a war
Who pays the price
If you want more
