lyrics

On this Night

I don’t know who you are
Or what scars you have to show
But you sure look good tonight
No I ain’t from around here
In fact I ain’t from around anywhere
But anything your heart desires
Baby I’m your guy

On this night of a thousand stars
Won’t you show me who you are

If promises remain unspoken
That will be better yet
Nothing to get broken
Nothing to forget
It’s a balance on a very thin beam of light
Twenty miles up in the sky
And when you look down and when you look around
You say “How’d we ever get this high?”

On this night of a thousand stars
Won’t you show me who you are

When everything you hold sacred
Comes to slip right through your hand
And you look straight into darkness
Then you begin to understand

It’s just a short walk from here
But we don’t have to go alone
Tell me just one secret babe
I promise I will keep it with my own

On this night of a thousand stars
Won’t you show me who you are
On this night of a thousand stars
Won’t you show me
Won’t you break down and show me
Who you are
