Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young Lyrics

Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young lyrics

I've got a dream 'bout an angel on the beach
And the perfect waves are
starting to come
His hair is flying out in ribbons of gold
And his touch
has got the power to stone
I've got a dream 'bout an angel in the
forest
Enchanted by the edge of a lake
His body's flowing in the jewels
of light
And the earth below him's starting to shake

But I don't see
any angels in the city
I don't hear any holy choirs sing
And if I can't
get an angel
I can still get a boy
And a boy'd be the next best
thing
The next best thing to an angel
A boy'd be the next best
thing

I've got a dream 'bout a boy in a castle
And he's dancing like
a cat on the stairs
He's got the fire of a prince in his eyes
And the
thunder of a drum in his ears
I've got a dream 'bout a boy on a
star
Looking down upon the realm of the world
He's there all alone and
dreaming of someone like me
I'm not an angel but at least I'm a
girl

I've got a dream when the darkness is over
We'll be lying in the
rays of the sun
But it's only a dream and tonight is for real
You'll never
know what it means
But you'll know how it feels
It's gonna be over
(over)
Before you know it's begun
(Before you know it's
begun)

It's all we really got tonight
Stop your crying hold on
(tonight)
Before you know it it's gone (tonight)
Tonight is what it means
to be young
Tonight is what it means to be young

Let the rebels
begin
Let the fire be started
We're dancing for the restless and the
broken-hearted
Let the rebels begin
Let the fire be started
We're
dancing for the desperate and the broken-hearted
Let the rebels
begin...(Tonight is what it means to be young...)
Let the fire be
started...(Before you know it it's gone...)
We're dancing for the restless
and the broken-hearted
Let the rebels begin
Let the fire be
started
We're dancing for the desperate and the broken-hearted

Say a
prayer in the darkness for the magic to come
No matter what it
seams
Tonight is what it means to be young
Before you know it it's
gone
Tonight is what it means to be young
Before you know it it's
gone

I've got a dream when the darkness is over
We'll be lying in the
rays of the sun
But it's only a dream and tonight is for real
You'll never
know what it means
But you'll know how it feels
It's gonna be over
(over)
Before you know it's begun

It's all we really got
tonight
Stop your cryin' hold on (tonight)
Before you know it it's gone
(tonight)
Tonight is what it means to be young
Tonight is what it means
to be young...

The things they say
And then the things they
do
Nothin's gonna stop us if our dream is true...
