Tonight
I own nothing...
Sam dropped the paper she held in her hands, this wasn't happening, this was just a dream...a dream she had to wake up from.
watch my back so i make sure
you're right behind me as before
yesterday the night before tomorrow
Without thinking she grabbed her car keys and ran out, this wasn't going to happen. She wasn't going to let it happen.
dry my eyes so you won't know
dry my eyes so i won't show
i know you're right behind me
Danny wiped the tears from his eyes, was this the path he wanted to take? Was this how he wanted his world to end?
and don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Sam wiped the tears from her own eyes, how could she have been so stupid? Why didn't she see the signs? She growled in anger as the tears kept falling, she had to be strong, she had to be strong for him.
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Approaching his home seemed so hopeless. The grey sky made it so that it was warning her not to go in, but she had too...she had to before it was too late.
walk the surface of this town
with high heels above the ground
and high horses that we know
keep us safe until the night
Danny could feel himself slipping away, he didn't want to leave, he didn't want to let go, but all the pain that was brought to him made him want to.
we know them all, i know it all
stay put and play along
'cause i'm looking for my friend
now i got you, got you
Sam ran inside the house that was once booming with life. She had worked so hard to fix his broken life, she had finally freed him from his nightmare...but now it seemed that it was all in vain.
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Danny could hear her before he could see her, he watched as her figure entered the room he was in. He stared at her as she watched his life slowly slip away.
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Sam froze for a moment. She stared at the cuts on his wrist, then she stared at him. And without warning she ran to his side and tried to stop the blood.
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Danny felt her arms on his wrist, he could hear her sniffles. He could feel himself feeling guilty. He froze...he could feel...it's been such a long time...
Sam let out gasps and sobs as she desperately tried to stop the blood. She managed to stop one side but it was only a matter of time for the other. She looked up and stared into Danny's baby blue eyes that were now dull instead of bright.
i dry my eye, dry my eye
falling deeper by the hour
dry my eye
Danny stared at her and managed a small smile, one that she stared in confusion at. He gently lifted his arm and cupped her cheek with his hand.
dry my eye, dry my eye
don't let me fall deeper now
dry my eye
Sam leaned into his hand, grateful that she could still feel his warmth. She stared back at the boy she loves, she watched as he leaned in ever so slowly.
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
She leans in too, and she can feel his warm breath as it flutters across her lips. She closes her eyes and he does the same.
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
The gap between them closes, but it feels like an eternity before it does.
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
The kiss was sweet and real. It made him feel tingly, made him feel safe. He sighed as he could actually feel his emotions swarm.
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
When they finally parted, he couldn't stop the smile. Sam hugged him tightly, and for once in his lonely and unfeeling life, he could feel.
let me go, let me go,
let me go, let me go
Sam stared at him with tearful eyes, she had almost lost him for a second time...she almost lost the only one she had left.
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
don't you let me go, let me go tonight
They both sat there in that dark room in each other's arms. Never in their lives had they ever felt so far from each other...yet so close tonight.
