Just before my grave, Selah
|
With bones and weathered skin
|
It’s a grave to sin afar
|
Afar from sheltered wings
|
So I sit and close my eyes
|
And try to shake this chain
|
Shake the jingle-jangle dry
|
Evaporate the pain
|
But tonight, tonight
|
The stars in line
|
And it leaves a shade of wonder
|
Yes tonight, tonight
|
The star returns like thunder
|
Crowded rooms and cheap cigars
|
You came inside my home
|
To erase the brutal scars and memories alone
|
But tonight, tonight
|
You look so bright
|
And your smile returns a story
|
Yes tonight, tonight
|
Your eyes transcend the glory
|
Just before my grave, Selah
|
The old and weathered sun
|
It’s a grave to sin afar
|
Rehearsed with wine and rum
|
But tonight, tonight
|
I leave this town as I shed my flesh desires
|
Yes tonight, tonight
|
I leave your mind in fire
|
|

Tonight
