Tonight (Original Version)

I saw your face tonight,

And I died a little more.

I gave you grace tonight,

I wish without me you'd feel poor.

I saw you smile tonight,

When you let me in the door.

I gave you beauty tonight,

When my heart is still so sore.

I saw you look at me tonight,

Your stare made my heart roar.

I gave you a warm gaze tonight,

For inside your soul I desire to explore.

I saw you linger at my touch tonight,

Do you remember feeling this before?

I gave you something to think of tonight,

For my presence you cannot ignore.

I saw you become nervous tonight,

Some feeling within me it did restore.

I put on my best face tonight,

In hopes that once again I'd be the one you'd fall for.
