Lyrics
Tonight when I close my eyes
I ain’t gonna think about yesterday
I’m gonna reach into the evening sky
And forget the reasons that once made me stay
I’ll find the truth
Misunderstood
Between cars and city lights
I’ll taste the tear
And greet the fear
That comes right after say goodbye
There I stand on the edge
Staring down at the world I know
Take it
Hold it in your heart
One step ahead of time
Stand up
Be brave enough to ask
Where are we going now?
You’ll only know when you say goodbye
Tonight when I close my eyes
I’m gonna count all the mistakes I made
I’m gonna kiss them just to feel their lips
As they pass by and fly away
I’ll let them go
Let them have my soul
Lonely bearer of my lies
I’ll close the door
I’ll leave the floor
To fly above the sands of time
There I stand on the edge
Staring down at the world I know
Take it
Hold it in your heart
One step ahead of time
Stand up
Be brave enough to ask
Where are we going now?
I guess it’s time to say goodbye
I guess it’s time to realize
That we all live our lives
One illusion at a time
Afraid to find the single truth
Afraid to leave our fears behind
C’mon and stand up, stand up
We’re one step ahead of time
Take the world in your heart tonight, yeah!
Where are we going now?
Tonight when I close my eyes
I ain’t gonna think of what tomorrow brings
