LYRICS
I see you there, don't know where you come from
Unaware of the stare from someone
Don't appear to care that I saw you, and I want you
What's your name, cause I have to know it
You let me in, you begin to show it
We're terrified cause we're heading straight for it, might get it
You're in the song playing on the background
All alone but you're turning up now
And everyone is rising to meet you, to greet you
Turn around and you're walking toward me
I'm breaking down and you're breathing slowly
Say the word and I will be your man, your man
Say when
And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight
Say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight
Come close and then even closer
We bring it in but we go no further
We're separate
Two ghosts in one mirror, no nearer
Later on if it turns to chaos, hurricane coming all around us
Double crack, throws you back from the window, you stay low
Say when
And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight
Say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight
Come across you lost and broken
You're coming to but you're slow in waking
You start to shake
You still haven't spoken, what happened
They're coming back and you just don't know when
You want to cry but there's nothing coming
They're gonna push until you give in, say when
Now we're here and it turns to chaos
Hurricane coming all around us
Double crack, throws you back from the window, you stay low
It all began with the man and country
Every plan sends another century around again
Another nation fallen
Maybe God can be on both sides
Of the gun never understood why
Some of us never get it so good, so good
Some of this was here before us
All of this will go after us
Never stops until we give in, give in
Say when
And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight
Say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight
Say when
And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight
I see you there, don't know where you come from
Unaware of the stare from someone
Don't appear to care that I saw you, and I want you
What's your name, cause I have to know it
You let me in, you begin to show it
We're terrified cause we're heading straight for it, might get it
You're in the song playing on the background
All alone but you're turning up now
And everyone is rising to meet you, to greet you
Turn around and you're walking toward me
I'm breaking down and you're breathing slowly
Say the word and I will be your man, your man
Say when
And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight
Say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight
Come close and then even closer
We bring it in but we go no further
We're separate
Two ghosts in one mirror, no nearer
Later on if it turns to chaos, hurricane coming all around us
Double crack, throws you back from the window, you stay low
Say when
And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight
Say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight
Come across you lost and broken
You're coming to but you're slow in waking

Tonight, tonight
Say when
And my own two arms will carry you
Tonight, tonight
Say when
And my own two hands will comfort you
Tonight, tonight
