Tonight

Hold me hard,
And hold me tight.
I just want to know,
That everything is alright.

Turn off the light,
Stay lost in the night.
Don't show no fear,
And keep innocence locked up tight.

Get down and pray,
To the spirits above,
And hopefully
They'll share the love.

Look in the mirror,
And watch my eye's flood.
And when you do,
Please try to remember,
All the love we've shared.
