Well little Dawn walks on,
And she thinks she don't belong under the starry heights
So take a sigh as long
As the war's been going on in your heart tonight
And if you want to make that light
Go on and swim across the ocean
And if you want to make it right
Go on and put your plan in motion
The gap is only as wide
As the hollow of the sky between you, my dear
And the truth, absolute,
Adding naught more profound to it than that you are here
And if you want to keep it bright
Well you might have to burn a candle
And if you want to keep it tight
Well you might have to learn to handle
But on the days and nights it's hard to breathe
And you can't believe you still walk the streets
Stretch out your weary hand to me - it's alright
And if you're not content to just believe
And if you don't consent to just let it be
Stretch out your legs and dance with me all night
Tonight, tonight
Tonight
And on the days and nights it's hard to breathe
And you can't believe you still walk the streets
Stretch out your weary hand to me - it's alright
And if you're not content to just believe
And if you don't consent to just let it be
Stretch out your legs and dance with me all night
Tonight
It's alright
And she thinks she don't belong under the starry heights
So take a sigh as long
As the war's been going on in your heart tonight
And if you want to make that light
Go on and swim across the ocean
And if you want to make it right
Go on and put your plan in motion
The gap is only as wide
As the hollow of the sky between you, my dear
And the truth, absolute,
Adding naught more profound to it than that you are here
And if you want to keep it bright
Well you might have to burn a candle
And if you want to keep it tight
Well you might have to learn to handle
But on the days and nights it's hard to breathe
And you can't believe you still walk the streets
Stretch out your weary hand to me - it's alright
And if you're not content to just believe
And if you don't consent to just let it be
Stretch out your legs and dance with me all night
Tonight, tonight
Tonight
And on the days and nights it's hard to breathe
And you can't believe you still walk the streets
Stretch out your weary hand to me - it's alright
And if you're not content to just believe
And if you don't consent to just let it be
Stretch out your legs and dance with me all night
Tonight
It's alright
