Tonight (Live in Australia 1986) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tonight
Do we have to fight again?
Tonight
Oh, I just wanna go to sleep
Turn out the light
But you wanna carry grudges
Nine times outta ten
Oh, I see the storm approaching
Long before the rain starts falling

[Verse 2]
Tonight
Does it have to be the old thing?
Tonight
Oh, it's late, too late
To chase the rainbow that you're after
I'd like to find a compromise
Place it in your hands
My eyes are blind, my ears can't hear
Oh, and I cannot find the time

[Chorus]
Tonight
Just let the curtains close in silence
Tonight
Why not approach with less defiance
The man who'd love to see you smile?
Who'd lovе to see you smile tonight
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Tonight
Just let the curtains closе in silence
Tonight
Why not approach with less defiance
The man who'd love to see you smile?
The man who'd love to see you smile
The man who'd love to see you smile
Tonight

[Outro]
"Tonight."

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
