the young boy wants to move ahead,
and the old man sings rewind.
i wonder when, in this timeline, we break to the other side.
maybe there's a span of time when we feel we're neither nor;
not wanting to go back again, and not wanting to go forth.
that point in life must be pretty dark and hopeless; terrifying.
and if you're asking me when that is.
it must be tonight,
it must be tonight,
it must be tonight,
it must be tonight.
the old man sits all by himself and thinks of better years,
when he used to believe in stars,
and would dream away his fears.
the young boy moves so fast he doesn't see the stars above.
and all his dreams are crushed by old men who didn't dream enough.
we must all agree,
there's a point in life when darkness breaks
our brittle hopes and dreams.
and i'd say,
it must be tonight,
it must be tonight,
it must be tonight,
it must be tonight.
it must be tonight.
it must be tonight.
it must be tonight.
it must be tonight.
stay with me.
and it must be tonight,
must be tonight.
save me tonight.
it must be tonight
