[Verse 1]
The sun won't rise tomorrow
To tell the world your sorrow
And if the moon
Should beg or borrow time
Tonight will last forever
[Verse 2]
The stars in flight parading
And now their light is fading
As one by one
They fall into the sun
Tonight will last forever
[Bridge 1]
Starlight
The winds of war astound me
The wind and roar surround me
Through the night
[Bridge 2]
Midnight
The sky goes on forever
I guess it's now or never
I guess it's now
[Verse 3]
Two lovers meet, horizons fall
The stars collide, and the heavens pall
To touch the sky
You run before you crawl
Tonight will last forever
[Verse 3 (refrain)]
To touch the sky
You run before you crawl
Tonight will last forever
