Parralox - But Not Tonight

But Not Tonight

Written by Martin Gore
Verse 1
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

Pre-Chorus
And I haven't felt so alive
In years

Verse 2
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

Pre-Chorus
And I haven't felt so alive
In years

Chorus
The moon is shining in the sky
Reminding me of so many other nights
But they're not like tonight

Verse 3
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

Pre-Chorus
And I haven't felt so alive
In years

Chorus End
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
