lyrics

So you're all alone,
and no one's beside you
Just take your heart home,
and just let me guide you
I promise you that
this ain't a shitty place to stay.
You can take your life back.
you can be your own day

I'm only sixteen
but I can tell you all I know
It's just you and the trees
your job and your false hope
I'm only sixteen
but I know how you feel
if you get knocked down
I fall head over heels

I can tell you how you make me laugh and take me away
Your smile will last and I'll just sway, and dance tonight
to the tune your laughter makes
every step that your heart takes

"Hey are you alright?"
I ask behind your back.
What about tonight?
I'll help you keep on track (What about tonight? What about tonight?)

I'm only sixteen
but I can take you away
from your distraction
and all this decay
I'm only sixteen
but you'll know how I know
we'll be just fine
it's not false hope (what about tonight?)

I can tell you how you make me laugh and take me away
Your smile will last and I'll just sway and dance tonight
to the tune your laughter makes
every step that your heart takes

I know who I am now
I'm trying to be somebody else
Feel like I'm going south
And I need your help
I know who I want to be
I know that something inside of me
I cannot explain how
I need these pieces, you see
They're all I have left here
I see that my path ahead is unclear
I just need to know, now.
Will you guide me, my dear?

I can tell you how you make me laugh and take me away
Your smile will last and I'll just sway and dance tonight
to the tune your laughter makes
every step that your heart takes

What about tonight, What about tomorrow? What about tonight?
