It isn't about what is to come
I don't care if the sun don't rise
It's all about what we do
And forget about the ties

It isn't what we have forgot
It isn't about the Yesterdays
It's just about now not then
And tonight you have to stay

You brought the light in with you
You chased away the pain
Not forever and not forgotten
But tonight there is no Rain

It isn't about an end
It's a temporary respite
It isn't even a return to form
It's just about tonight.



I aint as good as I once was but I'm as good, once, as I ever was. - Toby Keith

From an early experience on to various places and scenarios in the game of life Walter, you've captured something very real and meaningful...for the night.  

Touch, but don't look
