Tonight

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

You had it all planned out

You and him together in a big white house

Happy ever after's all you dreamed about

And nothing could be better

'Cuz you knew that you could

Make it through any weather but

Things changed when he moved away

You were all by yourself through the lonely days

All you could do was pray, then the phone call came

I think we're heading separate ways

Your heart stopped and you dropped to your knees

God why is all this happening to me

I understand everything's not perfect

But you're there through the worst of it

And Lord, I hear you say

Tonight, let every tear you cry and everything wrong inside

Bring you to me so I can make it right

'Cause even in the hardest times, you only need to realize

What you mean to me, so let me be your lullaby

I knew a boy from the Southside

Him and his friend were inseparable

Hung out all day, watched football games

Wherever one went the other would go

But one night he got a phone call

Something happened that brought tears to his face

There was an accident

We tried to save your friend but it was too late

Why is all this happening?

I just lost my only friend

I need to know I'm not alone

I can hear you gently whisper

Tonight, let every tear you cry and everything wrong inside

Bring you to me, so I can make it right

'Cause even in the hardest times, you only need to realize

What you mean to me, let me be your lullaby

They say if life gives you lemons make lemonade

'Cause bitter sweet is the tune that it likes to play

We're all instruments played on a different day

Like a symphony, like a symphony

We're born married into life and there's no divorce

Sometimes we're powerless to change the course

And when the innocent pay the cost

We all mourn the loss, we all mourn the loss

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

No matter the pain, no matter the cost

Know this

Tonight, let every tear you cry and everything wrong inside

Bring you to me so I can make it right

'Cause even in the hardest times, you only need to realize

What you mean to me, so let me be your lullaby

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Let me be your lullaby

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Let me be your lullaby
