She needs to feel alive
So she goes out for a drive
To a quiet place where the world moves slower
She's closer to her goal
When she finds a kindred soul
She tells a lie they both move closer
Was it fate, was it circumstance?
What brought them together, together?
Is it so wrong to assume at a glance
That tonight is forever, forever?
She needs to believe that she's somebody
Not just some body
She needs to believe
That tonight is a special night
That tonight is the only night
He knows the truth will sting
So he talks of petty things
The conversation turns to drinking
He pays a compliment
Her response a subtle hint
A confirmation of a good thing
Was it fate, was it circumstance?
What brought them together, together?
Is it so wrong to assume at a glance
That tonight is forever, forever?
He needs to believe that this is something
Not just some thing.
He needs to believe
That tonight is a special night
That tonight is the only night
The day illuminates
The extent of their mistakes
The magic of the night is broken
She says they'll meet again
He says he'll wait til then
No truer lies were ever spoken.
