Tonight

Come around and say you love me

Hang your heart and lights above me

Is that too much to ask for

When the night descends upon us

Take a shower, dry your hair by the furnace

I'll watch you from the corner

Telephones and old typewriters

Words of love along the wires

Lets make it work tonight

Telegraphs and birds that fly

Through air so still you hear me sigh

Lets make it work tonight

Tonight

Tonight

Then furious you threw the picture

I cap in hand, an awful mixture

That kind of hard love is the worst

I try to speak

But you don't hear me

When your gone

You still feel near me

For awhile

For a little while

I try telephones and old typewriters

Words of love along the wires

But nothing is working tonight

I try telegraphs and birds that fly

Through air so still you hear me sigh

But nothing is working tonight

Tonight

Please let's make it work tonight

Please let's make it work tonight

Tonight
