Somewhere Tonight

(album: Like A Rock - 1986)

Somewhere tonight
Someone's reaching out to someone who's refusing
Someone's tired of all the reasons someone's using
Someone doesn't understand

Somewhere tonight
Someone's thinking back to someone who got closer
Someone's realizing something's really over
Someone's thinking it's too late
Someone's thinking it's too late

There's a cold wind blowing from the north
And the summer birds are leaving
As the sun slips ever further south
The lakes will soon be freezing
And the ice will claim the empty shores
Where the one's in love went walking
And the hard blue skies will shiver
As the winter clouds come stalking

And unless you find someone to hold
Unless someone starts caring
Unless you find the warmth you need
Unless someone starts sharing
When the long, dark nights come closing in
And the winter winds come howling
You don't know if you'll make it
Without someone you can count on

Somewhere tonight
Someone's packing up and someone's really leaving

Someone's not quite sad only disbelieving
Someone's walking out the door
Someone's walking out the door
