Tonight, Tonight

I get excited every time I see you

It starts before I see you

Sweaty palms and weak knees

I have a hard time tying my shoes

Nothing in my closet is good enough

I thank God every time I see your morning face

You make me a believer

I did something right somewhere at some point

You deserve more than I have

My world is a better place with you in it

I know it's temporary

I know it's only for tonight

Let's do something we've never done tonight

Keep your clothes on and use my shoulder for a pillow

I'll use the small of your back as a parking spot for my right hand

We can see how well yours fits my left hand

We can let them lay on my chest

Use them as a metronome to get our breathing in tune

Your left hand can act as additional padding between you and my shoulder

Perfection is in the eye of the beholder

Tonight I'm the beholder of perfection

But only for tonight

Tomorrow it's back to your world

Tomorrow we're back to being just friends

I crave more than that

I keep my cravings to myself though

The excitement is like a drug

The excitement of seeing you

I'll keep tripping over my shoelaces because I couldn't tie them right

That means I get to see your morning face

Happiness is a warm gun

And you're the hottest pistol around

Tonight, tonight

Tonight I'm the luckiest man alive

I've found Heaven on Earth

Heaven is you and the Earth is me

Just for tonight

Tonight the planets are aligned properly

I'll get to see the dark side of your moon

Or show you the dark side of mine

I'll walk the soles off my shoes to park my soul next to yours

But only for tonight

Tonight is all I have

Tonight is the best night ever

Until the next night I have you

Until then, I'll dream about you

I don't want to dream about us

I don't want to dream about you

Don't let me dream about that

Make my dreams a reality

Tonight...

Tonight, tonight...
