Where Are You Tonight

Everybody needs someone
Everybody's on the run
Everybody's looking for
The love, that we need
The love, that we miss

Everywhere is love around
But loneliness is still what i found
Everybody's looking for
The love, that we need
The love, that we miss

Where are you tonight
I need your love
I need it to feel right
Where are you tonight
I'm missing you by my side
I'm missing the magic of your eyes babe

Tired of those loneley nights
Empty streets and darkest lights
Everybody's looking for
The love, that we need
The love, that we miss

Everybody needs someone -
And myself i'm still on the run -
Searching for - what i lost a long time ago
And i know,
What i need is only you
There's a long-distance train rolling through the rain, tears on the letter i write.
There's a woman i long to touch and i miss her so much
But she's drifting like a satellite.
There's a neon light ablaze in this green smoky haze,
Laughter down on elizabeth street.
And a lonesome bell tone in that valley of stone
Where she bathed in a stream of pure heat.
Her father would emphasize you got to be more than street-wise but he practiced
What he preached from the heart.
A full-blooded cherokee, he predicted to me the time and the place that the
Trouble would start.

There's a babe in the arms of a woman in a rage
And a longtime golden-haired stripper onstage
And she winds back the clock and she turns back the page
Of a book that no one can write.
Oh, where are you tonight?

The truth was obscure, too profound and too pure, to live it you have to explode.
In that last hour of need, we entirely agreed, sacrifice was the code of the road.
I left town at dawn, with marcel and st. john, strong men belittled by doubt.
I couldn't tell her what my private thoughts were but she had some way of finding them out.
He took dead-center aim but he missed just the same, she was waiting,
Putting flowers on the shelf.
She could feel my despair as i climbed up her hair and discovered her invisible self.

There's a lion in the road, there's a demon escaped,
There's a million dreams gone, there's a landscape being raped,
As her beauty fades and i watch her undrape,
I won't, but then again, maybe i might.
Oh, if i could just find you tonight.

I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
Horseplay and disease is killing me by degrees while the law looks the other way.
Your partners in crime hit me up for nickels and dimes,
The guy you were lovin' couldn't stay clean.
It felt outa place, my foot in his face,
But he should-a stayed where his money was green.
I bit into the root of forbidden fruit with the juice running down my leg.
Then i dealt with your boss, who'd never known about loss
And who always was too proud to beg.
There's a white diamond gloom on the dark side of this room
And a pathway that leads up to the stars.
If you don't believe there's a price for this sweet paradise,
Remind me to show you the scars.

There's a new day at dawn and i've finally arrived.
If i'm there in the morning, baby, you'll know i've survived.
I can't believe it, i can't believe i'm alive,
But without you it just doesn't seem right.
Oh, where are you tonight?
I want to know where are you tonight (tonight)
Tonight (tonight)
I want to know where are you tonight (tonight)
Tonight (tonight)
I've got to know (where are you) girl i've got to find you

I look at the moon and a single star
It's making me crazy wondering where you are
I reach out and touch that heavenly face
Open my hand and there's empty space

Oh no, where are you tonight (tonight)
Tonight (tonight)
I've got to know where are you tonight baby

The sink and the dishes spent the weekend there
Should clean up the place but i just don't care
Tonight i'll be talking to the moon and that star
Maybe they'll tell me where on earth you are

Oh no, where are you tonight (tonight)
Tonight (tonight)
I've got to know where are you tonight

Please believe me when you leave me
Keeps me worrying through the night
Worry baby makes me crazy
Can't tell wrong from right
Come to me tonight

I want to know where are you tonight (tonight)
Tonight
I've got to know where are you tonight (tonight)
Don't you hear me calling to you baby
Where are you tonight (tonight)
Tonight (tonight)
I've got to know where are you... baby
Where are you tonight (tonight)
I've got to know where are you tonight baby baby
You baby please hear just give me some kind of sound girl
Oh tell me baby of what you do tonight
