The Static Between - Tonight Lyrics

Stares at her mirror
And says "Girl, pull yourself together"
Her confidence a house of cards
With garden gnomes strewn through her yard
But she ain't gonna cry herself to sleep
Tonight

Puts her game face on
Lancôme and Revlon
Dressing up in a cynics disguise
To hide the frightened child inside
This chrysalis has got butterflies
Tonight

Hopes and fears across the wire
It takes two to conspire

Tonight
It's only coffee, nothing more
Tonight

He charts his mission
Campaigned precision
Body spray and a new tattoo
A belly full of attitude
Hopes he's hot and oh so cool
Tonight

Expectations running high
Cause he knows he's gonna fly

Tonight
The seas will boil, the earth divides
Tonight
The stars explode, the worlds collide
Tonight
The universe is his to ride
Tonight
Tonight

Swearing at the hour
He's running late
It's way past eight

She gets her coffee
She's still alone
She reads the paper
She still alone
He isn't coming
She's so alone

She sips the last sip
And curses this lost trip
Checks her fortune as she rolls the rim
It says "Sorry, play again"
Then out of breath
He stumbles in
Straight from the round the corner Tim's
Begging her to forgive him
Tonight

Shakes her head and cracks a smile
Maybe he can stay a while
Tonight
The floor is swept, the tables dried
Tonight
Two souls connect as time flies by
Tonight
The sun will set, the moon will rise
Tonight
They step outside to share the sky
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
