Nights Like These Lyrics
I’m not waiting, I’m going big
‘Cause I can imagine much better than this
I’m not waiting til I’ve figured it all out
I need a dream for right now
I’m not waiting for a guarantee or a map
And I know that everything I want is totally unrealistic
But there’s something about the way the sky is so clear, so high
I’m starting to think that I can rely on the stars to guide me
CHORUS
On nights like these you get a taste of freedom
You can say the word and I will take you with me
If we are brave and if we break
We’ve got to try to believe on nights like these
Nights like these
It’s not a plan, It’s just a flame
That lights up my name
A simple message to retain, so I know what I’ll say
Tie me to the choices I make
Tie me to all the things at stake
Hold me to the prayers that I say
Remind me
CHORUS
‘Cause I can imagine much better than this
I’m not waiting til I’ve figured it all out
I need a dream for right now
I’m not waiting for a guarantee or a map
And I know that everything I want is totally unrealistic
But there’s something about the way the sky is so clear, so high
I’m starting to think that I can rely on the stars to guide me
CHORUS
On nights like these you get a taste of freedom
You can say the word and I will take you with me
If we are brave and if we break
We’ve got to try to believe on nights like these
Nights like these
It’s not a plan, It’s just a flame
That lights up my name
A simple message to retain, so I know what I’ll say
Tie me to the choices I make
Tie me to all the things at stake
Hold me to the prayers that I say
Remind me
CHORUS
Unbuild these walls, in this place
Let’s make a moment for what we’re afraid of
Unbuild me, today
Let’s make a moment for us
INSTRUMENTAL
CHORUS
Ooooh
Nights like theseX
Let’s make a moment for what we’re afraid of
Unbuild me, today
Let’s make a moment for us
INSTRUMENTAL
CHORUS
Ooooh
