Píseň: But Not Tonight

Interpret:
Depeche Mode
Album:
B - Sides
Oh God it's raining
But I'm not complaining
It's filling me up with new life


The stars in the sky
Bring tears to my eyes
They're lighting my way tonight


And I haven't felt so alive
In years


Just for a day
On a day like today
I'll get away from this constant debauchery


The wind in my hair
Makes me so aware
How good it is to live tonight


And I haven't felt so alive
In years


The moon
Is shining in the sky
Reminding me
Of so many other nights
But they're not like tonight


Oh God it's raining
And I'm not containing
My pleasure at being so wet


Here on my own
All on my own
How good it feels to be alone tonight


And I haven't felt so alive
In years


The moon
Is shining in the sky
Reminding me
Of so many other nights


When my eyes had been so red
I'd been mistaken for dead
But not tonight
