Tonight - Lyrics by Plus One


Lyrics

I want to walk down Third Street slow
Drive up and down the coast
Watching the sunset hang
While God puts on His show
I want a life outside my own
A stranger that everybody knows
I want to kill the ghost that haunts me as I grow

But today
And every single day
Just covers up my face
The earth is dark but
I can see the sky

CHORUS:
Tonight
I leave myself behind
And run into the light
I am broken but that's just
Your type

I wanna trade this tongue for ears
Make failure disappear
I want the confidence that doesn't lean on cheers
I want to plant the golden seed
Beside the sparkling sea
Working my way up high
In a deeply rooted tree

But today
And every single day
Just cripples both my legs
These hands don't work
But yours will do just fine

CHORUS

Tonight
Yeah, tonight

Shine your light, let me see tonight
Shine your light, put your heart in mine
Cut the cord from this empty life
Cut the cord leave it all behind

Shine your light, let me see tonight
Shine your light, put your heart in mine
Cut the cord from this empty life
Cut the cord leave it all behind

Shine your light let me see tonight
Shine your light put your heart in mine

Shine your light let me see tonight
Shine your light put your heart in mine

CHORUS

Shine your light let me see tonight
Shine your light put your heart in mine
Shine your light let me see tonight
Shine your light put your heart in mine
C'mon and shine your light,
Put your heart in mine
Tonight
