I'll keep my eyes up tonight
I'll keep my eyes up tonight
Tonight
Gimme somethin' of past desire and dreams of long ago
Gimme somethin' untainted, made of glistening gold
'Cos my globe is cracked and leakin', and out falls the snow
So gimme somethin' undamaged onto which I can hold
Diamond days and firenights
Make a mark, and make it shine
Bright enough to see from satellites
I'll keep my eyes up tonight
I'll keep my eyes up tonight
Well there's no shame in dreamin' of a future age
Where all your aspirations haven't been whisked away
So I'll keep my spirits hopin' that the road will pave
And gimme somethin' that I can carry off to my grave
Gimme diamond days and firenights
Make a mark, and make it shine
Enough to see from every satellite
Diamond days and firenights
Draw your eyes up to the sky
You won't distinguish us from the moonlight
Keep your eyes up
Keep your eyes up
Keep your eyes up
Keep your eyes up
We are the sunlight (We are the sunlight)
We are the starlight (We are the starlight)
Tonight
Honey, look now, way up high
Focus on that star
Close your eyes and concentrate real hard
