Tonight

Almost summer. Almost. And Oslo is beautiful as ever. I'm in love with the city once again. The beauty of it hits me, full force, in the chest, makes me take it all in and not let go, not for one moment, for one second. I'm in love. I am. I want to walk the streets of this beautiful creation, creature, this complex mass of structures and personalities and trees and dreams and smells and corners and light and dark and everything, everything, everything.

And I don't want to lose you. Don't go away.

watch my back so I make sure
you're right behind me as before
yesterday, the night before tomorrow
dry my eye so you won't know
dry my eye so I won't show
I know you're right behind me

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
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

walk the surface of this town
with high heels above the ground
and high horses that we know
keep us safe until the night
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

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
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

dry my eye, dry my eye
falling deeper by the hour
dry my eye
dry my eye, dry my eye
don't let me fall deeper now
dry my eye

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
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

let me go, let me go
let me go, let me go
let me go

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
