Tonight
I thought of you tonight...
The pain is there, so clear in your eyes
as sharp as the knife that pierces through
but somehow, you always manage
to make it through
I wish I could be as strong as you
facing the fear
and all these things so grim
never letting your spirit dim
I wish I could be like you...
but maybe I am...
I take your hand in mine
feeling the warmth of our embrace
your heart beating, right beside mine
We feel our pain, we know it well
"It's not all in vain," I say
"Only the beginning of the end"
We wipe the tears away
You flash a smile
your spirits lifted...you say
"When this night is through...
and a new day shines for you...
that's when you know...
everything's going to be ok"
I force a smile
and look in your eyes
the pain still resides...
but a glimmer shines too
a look of hope...
And that's when I knew
everything was going to be ok...
