Tonight It Shows Songtext
von Mercury Rev

Into a dream, I took a turn and promised to return
The way we were, the way we met, the way I lit your cigarette
The way it trailed into a stream and lay down between


You had to choose, a side to lose, and divide yourself in two
The way you were, long before, you were a walking civil war
But you forget, where the road goes, and tonite it shows

Into your soul, i tried to climb, but found the hole too high
For me to leave, the way i′d learned, and found I couldn't turn
ThE way thE trees, and falling rain, remind me in a way

The way you were, the day we met, the way I lit your cigarette
The way it changed, into a strange, Cole Porter phrase
But you forget, how the song goes, and tonite it shows
