From the recording A More Perfect World
Lyrics
Get Here Tonight<br />
<br />
I could fold these days into perfect notes and send them off to you<br />
Or take a thousand photographs, hoping black and white might do<br />
But there’s too much magic to describe, every day a dozen mysteries<br />
Stories in between the lines, whispering (I’m listening)<br />
<br />
Would it all be the same -- if I called and you came <br />
If you could get here tonight<br />
Would the lights in the sky -- be as clear and as bright<br />
If you could get here tonight,<br />
Be right beside me -- (I think they might be)<br />
<br />
If I knew just how your voice would sound, I’d call you up tonight<br />
And wrap myself around the phone and turn off all the lights<br />
But who’s to say I’m sorry baby and who’s to say I know<br />
Haven’t we been through this all before (all this and more)<br />
<br />
Would it all be the same -- if I called and you came <br />
If you could get here tonight<br />
Would the lights in the sky -- be as clear and as bright<br />
If you could get here tonight,<br />
Be right beside me -- (I think they might be)<br />
<br />
<i>Alone it all distills to this / a moment captured in a box<br />
Lost and found once in a kiss / is it all locked away</i><br />
<br />
Would it ALL be the same (I don’t know, I don’t know)<br />
If I CALLED and you came (I don’t know, I don’t know)<br />
If you could get here tonight<br />
If you could get here tonight<br />
Get here tonight. . . and be right beside me<br />
<br />
