Tonight

The desperate sound of this song stuck with me last night, it matched my own. It was the first Sunday I didn't get to speak to my Man Friend, and at the end of a week where I'd hardly heard from him at all.
It forced me to realise something that I had acknowledged previously, but have avoided ever since. Even now, I'm still hoping like crazy that I'm wrong. The fact is, this long distance relationship is proving rather difficult to maintain and that scares me no end.

Watch my back so I'll make sure

You're right behind me as before
Yesterday the night before tomorrow

Dry my eyes so you won't know
Dry my eyes so I won't show
I know you're right behind me

And don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight

Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight

You walk the surface of this town
The high heels above the ground
And high horses that we know
Keep us safe until the night

You know them all, I know it all
Stay put and play along
'Cause I'm looking for my friend
Now I got you, got you

Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight

Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight

Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight

I dry my eye, dry my eye
Falling deeper by the hour
Dry my eye
Dry my eye, dry my eye
Don't let me fall deeper now
Dry my eye...

Yeah,
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight

Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight

Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight

Let me go, let me go
Let me go, let me go

Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight
Don't you let me go, let me go tonight

oooooh I just listened to the song, and she has such a youthful girlie voice, it's a very "stop and listen too" song... if that makes sense

I love this song. I've been on a total Lykke Li kick lately--but too much makes me kind of want to cry, so I intersperse it with lots of Yelle to cheer me up.
