Tonight and the Rest of My Life - Nina Gordon

Tonight And The Rest Of My Life

Down to the earth I fell

With dripping wings,

Heavy things won’t fly

And the sky might catch on fire

And burn the axis of the world

That’s why

I prefer a sunless sky

To the glittering and stinging in my eye

Feel so light

This is all I wanna feel tonight

Feel so light

Tonight and the rest of my life

Gleaming in the darksea

I’m as light as air

Floating there breathlessly

When the dream dissolves I open up my eyes

I realize that

Everything is shoreless sea

Weightlessness is passing over me

Feel so light

This is all I wanna feel tonight

Feel so light

Tonight and the rest of my life

Everthing is waves and stars

The universe is resting in my arms

I feel so alive

This is all I wanna feel tonight

I feel so light

Tonight and the rest of my life
