One Night
Linkin Park · Other Songs - Linkin Park
Eyes fixed in the sky
Just before twilight
Claimed the lights
Wind carried voices
Over the waters
From a whisper
Into a scream
We got this one night to make it real
For tomorrow is too far from here
The words that we cast
Into eternity
They still echo in my ears
And in my dreams
So meet me tonight
In the place that time forgot
And take with you
All that you can't leave behind
We got this one night to make it real
For tomorrow is too far from here
Headlights open
The road ahead
They can't light up the sky
But they can light our way
We got this one night to make it real
For tomorrow is too far from here
